I was wondering what other people's favorite combos/infinite combos were? Just to let you know mine is the infinite mana combo with Myr Galvanizer and Fireball . For the infinite opponent infinite damage win! Ohh and you need what is my favorite because you might need it to cast fireball Iron Myr .

Splinter Twin / Deceiver Exarch is fun.

I also like random Necropotence variant/ Cadaverous Bloom / Consume Spirit .

Then there are the ridiculous ones: Primordial Hydra and Doubling Season or Corpsejack Menace . Beastmaster Ascension with eldrazi spawn. Opalescence with Parallax Wave where I exile their stuff and in response exile the wave. (Hint: The wave is the only thing coming back.)

Then there are the spontaneous interactions. In a multiplayer game, "Oh, you played Phage last turn? Cool. Oblivion Ring ." And now I have stolen a player.

Scythe of the Wretched
Triskelion
Spawning Pit (or any sac engine)

With Scythe of the Wretched attached, have Triskelion ping itself. Let that resolve, and then have it ping anything else until it has no more counters. Then sac Triskelion to Spawning Pit . The scythe's ability will trigger, bringing Triskelion back to the battlefield with 3 +1/+1 counters and Scythe of the Wretched attached. Repeat.

This is a difficult combo to interrupt since there's only two places it can be done:
1. Destroying either piece in response to the Scythe's equip ability.
2. Destroying the Scythe in response to the Scythe's triggered ability once Triskelion has been sacrificed.

If your opponent attempts to interrupt at any other time, you can have Triskelion damage itself and then sac it. You can then continue the combo, never giving your opponent's ability/spell the chance to resolve.

As an added bonus, if your opponent interrupts at the 2nd opportunity, you still get a fully-loaded Triskelion back, just without the scythe attached to it.

Another cool one is Basilisk Collar + Inferno Titan . Yeah, I'm taking three of your guys before you block.

I will always love my first combo Basalt Monolith , Power Artifact , Rocket Launcher . I so enjoyed AQ as a set.

I like simple interactions. Cards that are good on their own, but when you put them together you get something really nice that just feels right.


Squadron Hawk into Faithless Looting or Brainstorm .
Carrion Feeder into something like Hellspark Elemental .
Ninja of the Deep returning somrthing that gets me value like Coiling Oracle .
Cloud of Faeries untapping an Izzet Boilerworks or similar land.
Armadillo Cloak on my Silhana Ledgewalker .
Flagstones of Trokair into Raze or Harrow .
Cavern Harpy with Chittering Rats .
Wild Mongrel or Vampire Hounds with Basking Rootwalla or Grave Scrabbler .
Anything like that basically.

mind over matter + arcanis the omnipotent + dream halls or omniscience would be my favorite for fun combo. atm sneak attack + worldspine wurm is my favorite ima kill you combo.

This thread made me think. I love combos, but I like so many different ones, that I honestly can't name one.

It might be energy field + wheel of sun and moon though. I really like combos that make you invulnerable, and this one is cheap enough to actually work (besides it can all be tutored by muddle the mixture , perhaps my favorite card in the game)

Pestilence White Knight


Treacherous Link , Pariah , Runed Halo (Naming Pestilence) for Icing.

yeah because everybody drafts Scars of Mirrodin with Innistrad (I admit that it's not as common as Scars/ Scars/ Exodus drafts, though... however, 8th just sucks so these never happen)

I like to include combos in my EDH decks:

Riku of Two Reflections likes Turnabout + Call to Mind + Mystic Retrieval . Once a critical mass of lands is reached, this creates infinite mana (and infinite card draw with Lunar Mystic in play, as I discovered last night).

Ghave, Guru of Spores goes to town with Phyrexian Altar + Melira, Sylvok Outcast + any Persist creature + Blood Artist / Falkenrath Noble . "I've just sucked one year of your life away. I might one day go as high as five, but I really don't know what that would do to you." 

The Mimeoplasm 's favorite is Mindcrank + an active Bloodchief Ascension . He also runs Exquisite Blood + Sanguine Bond just for kicks.

Deadeye Navigator + Palinchron is my new favorite way to make infinite mana in my Sharuum the Hegemon deck.
Flag bay_falconer October 2, 2012 2:14 PM PDT
Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind and Curiosity is fun.

Spirit Mantle on Priests of Norn is one of Doran, the Siege Tower 's favorites.

Insta-combos:

Melira, Sylvok Outcast : Any persist creature. (You can also use Mikaeus, the Unhallowed with them for a similar effect.) or Phyrexian Unlife

Doubling Season , Parallel Lives , Corpsejack Menace , proliferate: The first is a meme. Synergy with Doubling Season: X/6.

Isochron Scepter : Heroes' Reunion ( Sanguine Bond and Drogskol Reaver , to name two possibilities, optional), Withstand Death , Lightning Helix , Aggressive Urge , Unsummon , Fog , Counterspell , Swords to Plowshares (especially when you're running infect), and Eladamri's Call gives creatures a ping. These are a few of my favorite things.

Painter's Servant : Makes Chandra Ablaze good, breaks Grindstone , and, um, part of creating a computer?

Bloodchief Ascension : Break mill. Make Hideous End even more grief-tastic by using it on your opponent's turn.

Precursor Golem : Pick a cantrip. Any cantrip.

I'm into Exarch / Twin as well.

I also like Hive Mind + Pact .

And finally, the most difficult to pull off: Viscera Seer + Reveillark + Protean Hulk + Mogg Fanatic + Body Double .

Get Protean Hulk out and make sure you can kill it. When it dies, fetch BD, and VS, unless you already have one. Sack BD (he's a copy of PH), and fetch Reveillark and MF. Sack MF. Sack Reveillark to VS. Return BD (as VS) and MF. Sack MF. Sack BD to VS. Repeat until all is dead. I think I explained that right. Oh, and the reason I'm into it, is that you really only have to play one colour land. Green or Red both work. Blue does in casual or eternal formats, but I'm into Modern. I mean, I guess you could do Blue in Modern too, but it'd be hard.

swamp > fountain of youth > Dark Ritual > Phylactery lich

Turn one 5/5 indestructable is sweet!

I've got other zero casting cost artifacts in the deck too, the fountain is just my favorite zero artifact this side of a mox.
Flag bay_falconer October 3, 2012 3:33 PM PDT
Oh, another card for the Bloodchief Ascension: Maralen of the Mornsong . This one gives you a tutor and ensures your opponent will lose 3 life every one of his turns. More importantly, she gives your opponent a compulsory tutor. Archive Trap or Mindcrank now.

Another cool infinite thing is Intruder Alarm . I like to think of Bloodline Keeper and Intruder Alarm as an ever-growing army of vampires.

Another cool thing to do with the Alarm is that it's another Splinter Twin combo piece.

Ehh Tooth and Nail into a mephidross vamp + trisk was much much better plus T&N decks were going off turn 5ish....anyways there are lots of good combos/synergies out there

1st & 2nd turn Sneak Attack + Serra Avatar, Aluren + Cavern Harpy + Raven Familiar, Stick + Chant, Flash + Protein Hulk, Wirewood Channeler + crap elf + freed from the real, 7 swamps + magus of the coffers + staff of domination, High Tide + Snap

I once went up against a guy who ran a Warstorm Surge and Mirror-Mad Phantasm combo deck
