Title: Soul bond
Post by: Ckuhn203 on September 30, 2012, 05:44:55 PM
I was just wondering if anyone has found any killer soul bond combos. I'm a big fan of Wolfir Silverheart and Pathbreaker Wurm, but I'm pretty sure they were designed to work together. Just curious if anybody is playing the mechanic I guess.

Plus 12 non-trample if you attack with both

Well the paladin doesn't have haste unless you're playing him before wolfir but yeah if they don't remove either they're pretty screwed

Or {Thundermaw Hellkite}?

Or {Somberwalde Vigilante}. Block him, I dare you.

I find the hound the better of the two, as you can also block with him for the same effect

You need to have both soulbond guys soulbonded on the field so you can have BOTH of them with first strike deathtouch

You won't be hearing "swing with team" too too much unless they want to be left without creatures

Yes but again with the hound (and the other guy) they deal deathtouch damage BEFORE first strike gets time to happen. (As its declared blocked/blocking)

Right but only one has that ability. With lancer and peddler they both have first strike and deathtouch

Does death touch apply to non-combat damage?

Yes. Making {Viridian Longbow} on a deathtouch creature quite handy. Why chump block that {baleful strix} when you can death-ping each turn?

So why not build a deathtouch / Tim deck? Make any Tim a creature killer. There's Tim's for almost every colour...

There are combos like that floating around here.

Haha. Thanks guys. Lots of great ideas here. Just found a great combo. Nightshade Peddler + Golgari Decoy.

What's that? You're afraid to lose your creature? Too bad...

{Deadeye Navigator}+ {Angel of Serenity} they cant keep anything on the field and just keep swinging for 10
