Title: Fast Combos
Post by: Deebiia on August 18, 2013, 09:46:51 PM
What are some lower cost combos? Can be just synergy or infinites. I'm mainly wondering, because I'd like to make a deck full of combos.

Melira Combo is probably the fastest combo deck I know of (with consistency).

{Viscera Seer}
{Melira, Sylvok Outcast}
{Kitchen Finks} for infinite life
{Murderous Redcaps} for infinite damage

This is, of course, admitting that my knowledge of legacy is slim to none. I know modern well, but I'm sure there is faster in legacy.

Explain? I get melira making finks/redcap have no persist, but how do you repeatedly kill them?

Also, {devoted Druid} and {quillspike}, and my personal favorite, {engulfing slagwurm} and {lure}.

You kill them via Seer's scry effect
Herp-a-derp. I did not read that fully ;)

{power artifact} + {basalt monolith}
Make sure your deck is full of spells.
Then, {epic experiment} your whole deck.

I've got the stages, someone trade me 4 of the other 2.

My friend runs that with only one dark depths, and he wins quite a bit. The stage is instead of the hexmage, but you can run both if you like.

Not seeing the {thespian's stage}.. Won't copying it destroy both?

No. New rules state that you choose one and sacrifice the other. I'd take the one without the counters though lol

So what triggers the creature coming in? Sacking the land or it having no counters then sacking it? Because if all it needs is to be sacked than couldn't you just choose to sack the one with ice counters and get the indestructible creature?

Post by: Double-O-Scotch on August 28, 2013, 08:53:33 AM
It says " when it has no ice counters, sacrifice it" so you copy it with the stage, choose which to keep, (the stage) and then sack it for the 20/20 marit lage token.

I have a {dark depths} deck with this combo as well. Another good card for it is {grim discovery}

That brings up another question; won't both triggers go on the stack? 1. There's two legendary permanents of the same name in play. 2. One of the lands has a static ability where if it doesn't have ice counters on it sac it and place a 20/20 token.

The {dark depths} will not put a trigger on the stack since it didn't have zero ice counters on it. It will only go to the graveyard as statebased action when you bring in {thespian's stage}. The stage will trigger since it has no ice counters on it.

Thanks buddy.

Just thought of another combo piece:  {Faith's Reward}

Or you could just play  {Crucible of Worlds}.
Title: Re: Fast Combos
Post by: Vampyvyrus on September 02, 2013, 12:12:05 PM
Normally with the depths+hexmage combo 1 is enough to do the trick. Thespian stage isn't necessarily needed. T1 dark depths. T2 swamp, dark ritual, hexmage and sac it targeting depths. T3 swing for 20 flying.
