    It was me! I was the patron that mentioned the Monkey cage combo, sadly I don't have the income to keep being a patron anymore, my friend who came up with it called it the 13 Monkeys combo (after the film) It's one of those Legendary stories of EDH, making combos! He played it in a mono red goblins deck I recall to up the number of tokens on the field for the Warp.

    One combo I enjoy is Madcap Experiment in a deck where the only artifact is Platinum Emperion. Due to a ruling, you get the freecast with no loss of life.

    I have a combo that has become one of my recent favorites. It uses only lands and takes infinite turns, and you can play it in a mono-blue deck. Play Magosi the Waterveil, and skip one of your turns (high cost indeed) to put an eon counter on it. Then get Karn's Bastion to proliferate another eon counter onto Magosi. Then use Nesting Grounds to move one of the eon counters onto another permanent to store it. Then bounce Magosi back to hand to take an extra turn, and replay it as your land for turn. Next turn everything untaps, and you spend 5 to proliferate, 2 to move one token back to Magosi, and 1 to bounce Magosi and take another turn. Rinse and repeat.

    A personal favorite of mine is turning a cheap deck-filler into the key combo piece that ends the game.
    Octavia + Gigadrowse - make your X creatures on your board 8/8s while tapping down X blockers your opponents control
    Horobi + Touch of Darkness - 1 mana 1-sided-board-wipe. Etc

    If you hit a goblin bombardment off warped world as well, you can turn all of the monkeys into damage before the other ETBs even resolve.

  • @TheLuckySpades
    @TheLuckySpades 4 місяці тому +1

    My current favorite combos are from my recent River Song deck and are reliant on her to draw from the bottom of the deck
    Extra turn sorcery version:
    River Song and a card like Canal Dredger on the board
    Cast extra turn spell
    Put it on the bottom of your library with Canal Dredger (or similar)
    Draw it in your extra turn
    Repeat
    Sinfe this doesn't actually change anything on the board state this 3 card and 5-7 mana combo still needs an out, so I need something like one of the Niv Mizzets that ping or a Locust God or a repeatable draw to search for those in my deck (or an evasive creature to just hit people with, there is a Rogues Passage in the deck for that)
    There is also Timestream Navigator that does similar stuff, but for the loop it either needs the extra draw or a haste enabler like swiftfoot boots
    Otherwise River just turns stuff like Canal Dredger and Epitath Golem into neat recursion ans cards like Anticipate and Impulse into getting a card and stacking my draws

  • @alexliang1040
    @alexliang1040 4 місяці тому +1

    Radiant Performer +... (ideally played under a cost reduction commander like Animar or Henzie)
    ..+ Agent of treachery or Zealous Conscripts = everybody's stuff is yours
    ..+ Assassin's trophy (+Ob Nixilis Unshackled) = asymmetrical board wipe
    ..+emrakul the promised end = 3 extra turns under your conteol

    Omniscience-> Insurrection/Dark Realm->Warp World.
    You'd need to run a lot of tutors& some protection to guarantee Omniscience, whomever has the most permanents in play when Warp World resolves benefits the most.

    In Orzhov/WBX, Ophiomancer will work with Divine Visitation as well.
    With the Warp World/Monkey Cage example, I think running as many Haste enablers as possible would be key. If their creatures are big, you’re going to swarm them, and if they are small you’re going to force bad blocks. In Boros, there’s also a chance to hit an anthem or two, while in Gruul you could hit one of many token doublers. Seems like a relatively reliable win-con.
    There are a couple two-card combos that revolve around Ivy Lane Denizen or Rosie Cotton, which each pair up with either Herd Baloth or Scurry Oak. If you use ILD, you need it on the board first. If you use Rosie Cotton you need HB or SO on board first. Either way, you end up with an arbitrarily large HB or SO and an arbitrarily large number of token creatures.

    My favorite janky combo is Cadaverous Bloom + Lich's Mastery + any lifegain effect. So I have this in my Abzan Lifegain deck and it let's my storm off and play/draw my entire deck, typically the lifegain effect is from a Soul sister and I use the mana to play creatures which also have lifegain etb effects. Works amazing with extort as well 👌

  • @alexhanser560
    @alexhanser560 4 місяці тому +1

    Fun combo/deck idea for you demo - play sakashima of a thousand faces with a parter in really any color(s) and then the goal is to get all three kaldra pieces out. Then you have an engine on the helm of kaldra to make a 4/4 legendary for 1 mana and the sakashima lets you skirt the legend rule so you have a big cheap army! Love your content bud!

    I have a full deck based on interacting with warp world to win the game with Riku the Two Reflections as the commander. At its core is ETB triggers, ETB doublers, mana doublers, and cards that can return warp world to hand. The value is off the charts and if I resolve warp world the game is probably over. If I can double it with Riku’s trigger the game is definitely over.
    The big swing combos;
    Terror of the Peaks and Purphoros, God of the Forge just end the game but I think those are pretty straight forward
    Tunnel Ignus bolt opponents for each land they flip out past the first
    Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle, this works better in mono red but it also just rains lightning bolts after a warp world.
    Roil Elemental, take all the good creatures (for each land you flipped out)

  • @Blacklodge_Willy
    @Blacklodge_Willy 4 місяці тому +1

    Ophiomancer + Divine Visitation is a personal favorite of mine.
    Generous Patron is mvp in my Volrath deck, don't sleep on Willbreaker in that deck though!

  • @WARRIORofSAURON
    @WARRIORofSAURON 4 місяці тому

    Conspiracy + Endreck Shar, Master Breeder = Infinite (non-)Thrulls! Just love the Combo and I love Endreck Sahr as a Commander
    Additionally, in terms of combo, my number 1 deck is my Slobad Scrapyard. It is an artifact based deck around the old Slobad with the theme of playing artifacts, sacrificing them, returning them and reusing them. During the first month of playing the deck I always found new combo-interactions in the deck, which was absolutely great. Sometimes it was even gameending without me realizing it at the beginning of the turn.

    Here's a combo for Mycosynth Lattice+Bludgeon Brawl+Armory Automaton: cast Murderous Spoils on your own automaton. It destroys it, and you permanently gain control of ALL equipment attached to it. Meaning you steal all of your opponent's lands and other non-creature permanents.

  • @keeganmitchell8159

    my favorite combo with maskwood nexus is with the world tree. all creatures are gods. and with world tree you can spend the mana intensive 2 of each color to sac world tree and get every god onto the battle field. so 10 mana to get every creature in your deck onto the battlefield. i use it in my sliver deck lol

    • @robertoso8796
      @robertoso8796 2 місяці тому

      my arcades sabboth deck is a secret sliver deck. if i find dormant sliver then all slivers are defenders. if i get hivestonee or maskwood, all walls are slivers. i get double draw for walls and slivers + flying, trample, vig, double strike, etc. with eerie interlude/ghostway i can draw a dozen cards on etb. with eternal winess in play and enough mana i can geet it back and do it 3 times before it's my turn

  • @CastonAdrulu
    @CastonAdrulu 4 місяці тому

    a combo that i would like to fit into a deck sometime is 'Stormtide Leviathan' + some effect that prevents islands from untapping. 'Curse of Marit Lague' is the go to card because it also TAPS all islands on ETB. 'Choke' will prevent islands from untapping. so the idea is, now you have an 8/8 islandwalk creature that prevents non-flying and non-islandwalk creatures from attacking, can freely hit your opponents, and now nobody can tap lands for mana. not a HARD lock, but potentially a very strong one. havent been able to fit it into a deck because the enchanments are REALLY jank and dont do very much to the board for the mana invested, especially since they hurt you for having islands too.

    Looking back over your old videos that I'm just now discovering and I think you're missing a step in the Shield of Velis Vel and Pure Reflection combo. Sorry if you already addressed this in another video since. But you need 1 more card to start the combo. Either you need something that let's you cast creatures with flash to cast Velis on the opponent's turn or you have to cast a creature of your own after you cast Velis. That ability only works when the spell resolves, it isn't a triggered or activated ability, and it only lasts until end of turn.

  • @honeybeeees6666
    @honeybeeees6666 4 місяці тому

    My favorite combo requires a literal 10 cards to set up but it involves the sixth doctor, ojer Taq, Mondrak, Adrix and Nev, lullmage Mentor, a few additional clone effects and Mystic Reflection.
    The most I've done with it was countered a spell using Lullmage Mentor, made like 130 merfolk tokens, then cast Mystic Reflection targeting Lullmage Mentor.
    130 tokens enter as copies of it, now when I counter any spell, I make 16900 merfolk tokens, all of which can be tapped to counter any spell.
    I win. Lol

    Just came up with Cavalier of Dawn and Animate Dead: Animate the Cavalier, have it destroy the Animate Dead to get a 3/3 golem, Cavalier dies as a result, death trigger returns Animate Dead to hand. Repeat
    I have a Sythis deck with the sole purpose of using Tornado and Solemnity (Saw the combo the moment Solemnity got released, as Tornado was already on my short list of cards I really wanted to make work)
    Literally just made a monoblue merfolk deck with intruder alarm and lullmage in it (Emperor Mihail II)
    Mirrorweave is hilarious. Attack with some sort of evasion, one creature at each player, then use it on a Virulent Sliver. Suddenly all creatures have poisonious N, where N is the number of creatures in play

  • @carlos9402
    @carlos9402 4 місяці тому +3

    I think it's really fun brewing different deck ideas and thinking about synergies. But i think it's really bad advices to suggest playing 2 cards in a deck that sometime only synergize between themselves. If your deck runs a Ophiomancer, throwing a Conspiracy in it only means that 90% of your games it will be an absolute dead draw, unless you already have Ophiomancer in play, in which case it's still a suboptimal play for 8 mana. We should prioritize deck synergy as a whole. But of course, you absolutely play what you want. I tend to favor playing combo card that synergize with the rest of my deck, and is always a good draw.

    • @MeZimm
      @MeZimm 4 місяці тому

      Probably more a matter of "incidental value". Ophiomancer provides value in any deck it's in, but Conspiracy is build-around. So if you're already running Conspiracy because you want all your creatures to be a certain type, then consider Ophiomancer since that's going to be a good card even without Conspiracy. Conversely, if you're running Ophiomancer to provide sac fodder and you don't care about creature types, then you probably don't want to run Conspiracy (for the reasons you mentioned.)
      EDIT: Demo does speak to this at 13:13.
