Title: Gelectrode Combos
Post by: Karrthus on November 27, 2012, 08:09:21 AM
Xaol gave me the idea to see how many combos we could come up with using this {Gelectrode}. So I'll start it and we'll see what everyone comes up with.
Mine is {Gelectrode} + {Galvanic Alchemist} + {Khalni Gem} + {Filigree Sages} + {Training Grounds}

{Ichoron scepter} + {Twiddle} + {Gelectrode}
Add any infinite mana source and you've got infinite dmg.
Edit: Actually, add {Izzet boilworks} and {Pyromancer Ascension}

{gelectrode} + that card that reduces instance/sorcery costs by 2+ something cheap with buyback

And thank you for making this thread. This will really help for when I make my Wierd deck

Glad to have inspired!  {Gelectrode} is just such an awesome card both flavor-wise and fun factor. I mean, it's a blob. Which pings. It's a Weird, for heaven's sakes! If there was ever a card to sum up Izzet, I'd pick this slimy sucker!
Good luck thinking up combos guys, I'll try to think of one myself.

A combo inspired by Malleo's...
{Gelectrode} +  {Epic Experiment} + {wheel of sun and moon}, combined for the fueling of it with the {Karn, silver golem}+ {Thran Dynamo} + {voltaic construct} combo.
Have a {vampiric tutor} or  {Demonic Tutor} embedded to a  {Panoptic Mirror} to recover the experiment from your deck

EDIT: better still to use the  {Isochron Scepter} for the {vampiric tutor} than the mirror, as the scepter will allow you to cast the tutor at any time to ensure you draw the experiment.
Toss onto the {gelectrode} a {basilisk collar} and you have an infinite life gain, damage deal and near total creature control combo.

You know though you dont have to waste all that mana just use {intruder alarm} + {Silver Myr} + {Shrieking Drake} and bounce the drake back as you play it plus all this only cost 6 then you can have gelectrode and a bunch of ping creature untap and tap inifinite

Drake isnt an instant or sorcery

No it isn't, but this works: tap  {Gelectrode} and any other pingers you have to deal damage, tap  {Silver Myr} for 1 blue mana, cast  {Shrieking Drake}, as it etb  {Intruder Alarm} untaps everything, use its etb ability to bounce itself, and repeat

This thread is not about 'why waste the mana', but rather how many ways can you include a {gelectrode} in combos, after all, not every one has to be about only pinging.
