Title: Inspiration combo?
Post by: Birdbrain on January 13, 2014, 11:55:11 AM
Anyone know of an infinite combo to tap and untap a creature to work with the new inspiration mechanic?

Inspiration mechanic is from Born of the Gods.

It says "whenever this creature becomes untapped, X", where X is whatever that ability is

If there were an enchantment that gives Inspiration, you could animate {Basalt Monolith} with {Sydri, Galvanic Genius} and enchant the monolith, then just say "I win" depending on what the effect is. =P

One I find which could work if there will be an untap aura is {stonybrook schoolmaster} with a {presence of Gond} on it and a {blasting station} on the field.

Or use an {aura of dominion} on the schoolmaster and have it equipped with {paradise mantle} with the station in play.

Add in creature control by having a {grave pact} down as well

Something with {Kiora's Follower} maybe?
This^...having this card in GY with {Devoted Druid}, {Morselhoarder}, with {necrotic ooze} on the field can work with the new inspiration mechanic

Just thought of something. {Elite Arcanist} exiling {Triton Tactics}, {Illusionist's Bracers} equipped to the Arcanist, {Kiora's Follower} (x2?), {Springleaf Drum} and an Inspired creature. Tap the drum and the Inspired creature to make a mana, tap Follower to untap the Drum, use the mana to cast Tactics off of Arcanist which gets copied from the Bracers, untap Arcanist, Follower, Inspired creature, and one other creature. Rinse and repeat. Then slam a {Doran, the Seige Tower} to make your opponent die a horrible death. Ok that last bit isn't standard.

Thought of this in class today: {Paradise Mantle} + {Freed from the real} or {Penmin's aura}. You can pull off an infinite combo to put your whole deck in your hand with pain seer, gain infinite life with oreskos sun guide, and more.

 {Midnight Guard} must be in there if there is token-spamming inspiration?

Does this mean that {breaching hippocamp} can be useful now? He looks like he is begging for attention.

"Did you want a horse, I can be a horse if you want. You wanted a fish? I can do that too. Look I can jump out of the water like a dolphin."

{Felhide spirit binder}

Does anybody see the potential to go infinite with this guy?  I haven't put too much thought into it but I'm sure it's got to do something with mana rampers and {Illusionist's Bracers}/{Strionic Resonator}. Can anybody come up with the combo?

{intruder alarm} + {elite arcanist} with a {battle hymn}

you would need three creatures on the battlefield, and a way to tap the {felhide spiritbinder}

May I suggest {paradise mantel} to ease the combo?

Edit: oh! And if you chose elite archanist and have a hand full of cheap instants and sorceries, things could get out of control realy quick

Edit: have one of the copied cards be {peer through the depths}!

Post by: Birdbrain on January 17, 2014, 12:37:13 PM
Did I just break {Kiki jiki, mirror breaker}!!!???

Anyway. If you want standard , I suggest {burning tree emissary}

Why is peer through the depths a good card? I have 4 that I don't know what to do with..
its good if you put it in the right build like a lot of cards
