Crazy Combos

 

Over the past few days ive been playing with decks and thinking of new ideas and i then thought lets abuse some cards and create deadly combos. 

i created a combo around not being dealt damage using pariah and also in the same deck phyrexian unlife.

the pariah can be used on either cho-manno revolutionary to just not take damage or on stuffy doll to do the damage to your opponent i was thinking about making it red to add some burn stuff to help kill them but i thought id rather go blue and stop them from o ringing the pariah or preventing a tragic slip something like that.

the phyrexian unlife works wonders with melira. by not being able to die if on 0 and instead just taking poison melira jumps in and says 'you know what i dont like the last part of this deal lets just keep it at not being able to die' and so you cant be dealt damage or take horrible poison counters

my challenge to you is making a deck which abuses cards to unravel some of coolest and cruellest combos.

just leave your decks in the comments and i will have a look at them the winning combo will be here next sunday.

GET EXPERIMENTING GUYS :)

 

Format: Legacy

Deck size: 60+

1 entry per person

The deck must be your own, no copying other people... if someone has posted the same combo before you, you are allowed to have another go but maybe your combo works better with the other cards you have.

I have looked at this blog about 3 times and seeing as there are no responses yet, I really have to point this out...

Almost every single useful combo has already been discovered. Even your combo deck has combos that were discovered long ago (I'm pretty sure one of the intro packs even mentions a similar one to Pariah and Cho-Manno, Revolutionary, so wizards discovered it themselves and still chose to publish the cards.) This makes your no copying rule very hard to work with, as you'll have to have copied a combo that was probably discovered by at least 10 people before you.


I love the idea of this blog, but I just had to point out that unfortunate fact :/

The only viable option at this point would be a combo using M13 cards (but yearly magic set releases usually cover simpler rules of magic like tribal, so I doubt there are many combos to be found, if any.)

I have to agree with Yshabash. And the Melira/Unlife combo was even in the New Phyrexia Fat Pack for combos.

one combo that i've never heard of that i thought of is paying life (i.e. immolating souleater/griselbrand) and phyrexian unlife/elderscale wurm

paying life actually does cause you to lose with elderscale wurm. elderscale wurm only puts you to 7 if you went below 7 because of damage.

I think you could have put a little more effort into your blog. Hell, you didnt even bother to capitalize the title.
Still, heres one of my combo decks. http://www.mtgdeckbuilder.net/Decks/ViewDeck/162320

It has 3 "Combos". Isochron Scepter + Orim's Chant to stop your opponent from casting non-instants and attacking. Energy Field + Wheel of Sun and Moon to prevent all damage to you. Thopter Foundry + Sword of the Meek for 1/1 flyer and 1 life for 1 mana(add time sieve and you have infinite turns if you have 5 mana available). All the combo pieces can be searched by Enlightened Tutor for incredible reliability.

If that was your intention, you should no doubt have posted this in the `Deck Building Challenge` section of the forums.
