Title: Planeswalker blink
Post by: Oldschoolmtgnoob on February 11, 2015, 01:04:06 AM
If you were to use the -loyalty of a pw then blink it, can you use its ability again that same turn? I figure it comes back in with the original value stated on the card.

{Flicker}
{cloudshift}


Flickerwisp and the glimmerpoint elk don't work because they return the Walker to late to use any abilities. Same with skybind.

Try {Isochron Scepter} Or  {Elite Arcanist}
Shhh... Llama... No more idea-giving... I may have to use {the Chain Veil} on you...

Okay so because I'm me, mana rock that taps for 2 + {Isochron Scepter} + {Flicker} + {Tezzeret the Seeker}.

Look ma, an infinite combo that does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! Of course you can add something like {Monestary Mentor} for infinite tokens but...you know.

That does, in fact, work.  In my Brago deck, I'll sometimes use a 'Walker first main for a neg, then it with Brago to use another ability second main.

{Flicker} is a sorcery. It doesn't interact with {Isochron Scepter}.

Lol, so neither work, probably designed that way!!!


Flicker still works. Target nonland permanent.

Boomerang is a viable because with Boomarang you have to actually cast a spell again as opposed to just paying for the cost of the blink

Yeah but i realized after posting that boomerang doesn't give you the free return

 {Venser, the Sojourner} May not be inf combo worth but his +2 is a blink. 

Inf combo:  {Flicker} And  {Tezzeret the Seeker} And  {Elite Arcanist} And  {Sol Ring} And  {Jeskai Ascendancy}. This might do what you guys want

Edit: crap I though arcanist was Instant or sorcery

Edit 2: I may have it. Replace flicker and arcanist with {Flickerwisp} and  {Soul Foundry} And instead of sol ring have  {Gilded Lotus}!!!!!

Edit 3: flicker wisp is end of turn.......... I'm starting to think WoC has thought of this as well and try to make sure there isn't an inf combo unless it's extremely convoluted

So you use tez plus target lotus and soul in response use lotus to pump out a flicker wisp. After all resolves you have inf flicker wisps

Wisp doesn't return until end of turn...

Yeah I just caught that.....

How about this.  {Clever Impersonator} Exiled on {Soul Foundry} with 2x {Gilded Lotus} and {Tezzeret the Seeker}.

Combo: ok I think this is how it goes. Use lotus 6 mana. Use tez untap lotuses. Poop impersonator get new tez 2 mana. Use lotus 8 mana. Use tez untap foundry and one lotus. Poop new tez 4 mana. Tap lotus 7 mana. Problem is I lose a mana every iteration so I need an artifact that generates 4 mana somehow......

I've got it. The most convoluted inf planeswalkers combo.  {Rosheen Meanderer} Equipped with  {Silverskin Armor}. Soooo

Combo: Tez to untap Meanderer and Foundry respond with pooping a new tez. Rinse repeat. And if you want this combo to actually do something maybe   {Altar of the Brood} To mill you opponent one tez at a time lol.
