Daily Combo 3: Too Many Golems!

[BlackJester]

This combo idea was inspired by BrokenPillar's deck Just Add Water:

http://imtgapp.com/forum/index.php/topic,1138.15.html

where {Precursor Golem} + {Cackling Counterpart} is a combo in Standard to generate oodles of golems.  As BP says, you can pump out 8 new golems.  12 more with the flashback.

I wanted to post this because it's awesome, but if you are willing to leave Standard I've got one better:

{Precursor Golem} + {Rite of Replication} = MADNESS!!

Without adding any {Twincast}, {Doubling Season} shenanigans, if you kick a single casting you'll have in your possession 6 {Precursor Golems} and 22 3/3 Golem dudes to smash face. 

Make sure you pack some other tools for defense because a single {Threaten} can really ruin your day.  {Apostle's Blessing} will help, or if you can swing it {Swift Silence} if they try to {Doom Blade} your team.  Just watch you don't deck yourself.

Cheers!  And Thanks again BrokenPillar for the sweet combo!  Check out his deck, 'cause he's got some other sweet gems in there!

Bonus:  {Precursor Golem} loves {Hunter's Insight}!

I built a deck around thisas one way to beat down, but also have a {consecrated sphinx} {jace's archivist} combo to mill myself down to pull a {lab maniac} two ways to win are always better than one. To protect the golems I run {turn aside} in main board and {ranger's guile} in side board.

{Ranger's Guile} ðŸ'
{Turn Aside} ðŸ'Ž

One targets your golem, the other doesn't. One will be copied, the other will not.

[JakeyWakey]

Well the {turn aside} is really for burn or other Things that can harm my golems, stop it from targeting one, and it isn't copied for the rest. Of course there isn't much defense against a {slagstorm} but {rangers guile} can at least keep my golems afloat.

[BlackJester]

As soon as they target a golem with a spell, a trigger will be put on the stack to make the copies. Even if you counter the original, the copy effect will use the last known information as it resolves.

Ranger's guile, to the main board!!

So what would {clone} do to precursor

[BlackJester]

Not a heckuva lot. Since it's a creature and not an instant or sorcery, {Clone} would ETB as on copy of {Precursor Golem} and put two fresh 3/3 golems on the field. That's it.

[BlackJester]

As I sent that last post, something occurred to me. If you have more than one {Precursor Golem} in play, each one will trigger separately. So if you happen to have two of them, for every single spell that targets a golem, that golem will still have one spell targeting it, but each other golem will have two copies.
That's right, the effects are cumulative. XD

So I made a deck using this combo and I was able to make 200 tokens and 40 precursors

🙏high fives!

{Twisted Image} + {Labratory Maniac}?

[JakeyWakey]

Is {precursor glome}s ability not a triggered response? If it is wouldn't I have a chance to respond to an opponent blasting one of my golems before the spell is copied?

[BlackJester]

{Twisted Image} + {Labratory Maniac}?

Elaboration?

Is {precursor glome}s ability not a triggered response? If it is wouldn't I have a chance to respond to an opponent blasting one of my golems before the spell is copied?

I want to double check this one, but my understanding is that since the triggered effect isn't targetting the spell that's being copied, the trigger will still resolve.  Instead, the triggered ability will use the last known information of the spell before it was countered.
