Midianite's slave abuse

Edgy title is edgy.  :P

Activate hidden treasures, rescue with midianite's slave. after he captures to opponent's lob, draw two and bring in joseph. joseph plays Freeing Earthquake off hidden treasures to release and band to midianite's slave, who captures himself again to lob to draw two. To finish it up, you can bring in any son of jacob, but I personally like levi best in this situation, as he allows you to snipe one of opponent's ECs in territory. Really the only down side for this is that your opponent gets to draw 4, so that may be a deal breaker, but it's still a fun combo using old AW cards that no one ever uses.

Edit:
Gabe brought up Judah, which makes this even better. Just choose Judah as the Son of Jacob you add the first time, exchange him with MS and then go on to Joseph. that bumps this up to D6. Pretty nice!

You could pair it with a Greek Abom deck to make your opponent choose between the Draw or you getting to discard a card in their territory.

Or Egypt and Sun Worship to mill their deck if they do.

Judah should probably be involved in the combo too.
Have you visited the Land of Redemption today?

just want to confirm this would not work as Sun Worship says "opponent uses" meaning an ability they control. is a may ability considered an ability they control since it is their choice?

No. An ability is used by the player controlling the card when the draw activates, regardless of who carries it out.

Midianite's Slave + Judah + [Son of Jacob] + Covenant of Palestine/Abram's Army is pretty nice.
