Title: Arjun, the Shifting Flame
Post by: Taysby on November 05, 2015, 12:44:05 PM
{arjun, the shifting flame}

35 lands

lots of rituals
lots of instants
some draw cards
{mind's desire}
{grapeshot}
{empty the warrens}

Seems degenerate.

Don't forget to toss in some infinite mana, infinite storm combos and a {Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind} just to kill people while getting to that point.

Well duh!  What did you think I was going to do?  ;). Niv is a fantastic idea. What ideas do you have for infinite storm combos?
Now that you ask, it's {R}{U} only.
Awaken a couple of lands to get to {4}, {intruder alarm}, bounce {ancestral statue} is one.
Infinite mana is easy. You've got access to the infinite artifact/creature untap mechanic with {aphetto alchemist} + {illusionist's bracers}.
Just throw in some rocks and you're fine.
With infinite mana you pretty much HAVE infinite storm. Cast a spell, refill hand, cast a spell...

EDIT: oops. Misread. Draw that many.
Well, {Alhammarret's Archive} fixes that.. Though that could cascade in drawing your library...
Start out with 7, cast a spell, draw 12, cast, draw 22, cast, draw 42, cast, draw 82...

Something with {grinning ignus} comboes for storm. I forgot what the other piece was.

Still have to produce red mana, so not infinite:/

Awaken a mountain, {intruder alarm} yet again.
Or a {R} mana rock, {aphetto alchemist} & alarm.
