Title: Mono Red Combos For Modern
Post by: Z5 on April 13, 2015, 07:53:05 PM
Is there any mono red combos, in modern, that are budget, and cheap to cast, that dont require more than 3 cards, that win or guve you a big advantage.

Only one I can think of in mono red is {lightning bolt} + {lightning bolt} + {lightning bolt}.

Otherwise no red combos exist in modern.

{Mountain} + {Mountain} + {Mountain} + {Blood Moon} is a pretty good one.

Not really budget though...

{Ball Lightning} + {Fling} has always been a favorite of mine

Attack with the Lightning then fling him for 12 total. Great game finisher

Or {Goblin Arsonist} + {Goblin Grenade}
Attack with arsonist for 1, grenade him for 5, ability kicks in for 1 for 7 total

I've posted an infinite Krenko in the EDH. Not sure if it's modern legal or playable though...

QuoteDunno if it passed by already, but was thinking  about infinite Krenko in mono red.
{liquimetal coating} on {krenko, mob boss}. Have {voltaic construct} and {skirk prospector} on the field. To actually profit you will need 1 additional goblin, or some etb/ltb effect.
Turns out Skirk isn't modern legal. Anything else that can generate the mana in artifact or red?

{Koth of the Hammer} can give you a decent amount of mana for one turn. No infinites that I can think of

There's no way in hell you're going to find that. It'd be well known by now and probably not budget.

Now because I like to think I'm not a terrible person, here's a janky combo. It's not cheap to cast and takes more than three cards but it's hella rad.

{Boros Reckoner} x4 + {Shivan Meteor} x1 + {Dictate of the Twin Gods}/{Furnace of Wrath}

Ludicrous damage.

Or Reckoner x1 with {Blasphemous Act} is just as good or better

Actually, a boros reckoner, stuffy doll and { ragged veins} deck could be pretty fun... using mass board wipes

How are you combining with {ragged veins}, {stuffy doll}, {Boros reckoner}, and board wipes? I mean {blasphemous act} is a thing here maybe but not {wrath of god}.

Then I'll utilize damage dealing boardwipes.....

But I mean what is {ragged veins} doing here. It says it does damage to its controller. So your not enchanting your doll or your reckoner right, just one of their dudes?

{Impact Tremors}, {Purphoros, God of the Forge}, {Altar of the Brood}, {Warstorm Surge} so this is actually a win.

This is a win on its own. Infinite haste zealous conscripts tokens have a way of killing your opponent... ;)

The conscripts are doing the exact same thing a {pestermite} would in the "normal" combo.

Only $100,-- a play set. It's not like you need a playset of {black lotus}es.

Oops... Missed out on the budget part :P my bad

{norin the wary} + {genesis chamber} isn't exactly a combo but is lots of fun. Add purphoros for more damage.

I didn't read that they have haste. My bad.
