Post by: Fenster on June 19, 2012, 07:49:49 AM
I need an artifact or creature with wich i can just dump mana into for any effect. Preferbly a wincon and not a creature buffer.

My combo is {Krak clan ironworks} + {Salvaging station} and {Memnite} or {Arcbound worker}
Would {Thopter foundry} work?

{Mind shrieker} and {ambassador laquatus} are both great for dumping mana into and awesome to screw over your opponents.

Could you use {chimeric mass} to fix that combo?

I always like dropping extra mana into {steel Hellkite} but you didn't want creature pump.. :/

Problem with mass is that i cant pay x from the gy. But i was considering {Chimeric coils}

I don't think you need to pay x. And x = 0 for a free artifact. You pay 1 make it a creature and then instantly sac it before it dies (as a 0/0) you then have another mana spare and a creature dies, your artifact untaps and you go again and again increasing your mana pool by 1 each time.
If indeed that works.

You can't sac a 0/0 creature (if nothing is buffing the toughness). The reason is because a state-based effect checks for 0 toughness and it hits the graveyard at a faster speed than anyone can respond to.
