Combos to Try
«

Here are a few combos that have been recently made available that can really cause some havoc.
Teysa, Orzhov Scion
+
Painter's Servant
set to Black + 3 random creature.
This allows you to sacrifice 3 creatures to RFG all of an opponents creatures. It also leaves you with 3 tokens.
Nightsky Mimic
+
Painter's Servant
set to either Black or White...whichever color your deck isn't.
This allows all of your spells to activate
Nightsky Mimic
. This works for any of the Mimics. This also plays very nicely with the above combo.
Luminesce
, or
Honorable Passage
, or
Flash Freeze
+
Painter's Servant
set to Red.
There are quite of few of these similar effects but...these rock.
Circle of Protection: Red
+
Painter's Servant
set to Red.
Of course this can be any color...just switch the cards. If you want to get tricky you can add in
Robe of Mirrors
for your
Painter's Servant
. This is my personal favorite.
Share your combos here. Let the forums see your combos and we can make sure that your Super Awesome wtfbbq Combo isn't a bombo.

Intruder Alarm
is broken all over the place. Good stuff. It tickles me everytime someone finds a new reason for

to be awesome.

I search another website for decks that I might try eventually (cause I'm poor as heck, then again I don't really do anything for money). The website is MTGFanatic.com, they sell cards but they are nowhere near coolstuffinc's prices. Some of their $700 decks they have I can get at Coolstuffinc for $550 not including the promo code from watching ManaNation (YAY!!!). People often put up a lot of different kinds of decks. Searching it every other day gives you a lot to work with. I put up a Retrace deck named Retrace the other day today I go searching from the deck home, and it's four/five pages in!

A combo I tried recently was
Scarecrone
+
Thornbite Staff
+
Composite Golem
=Unlimited Mana (and unlimited card draw) and with a
Bottle Gnomes
unlimited life. Or with
Reaper King
in a scarecrow deck you can destroy everything.
I just couldn't get the deck to be quick enough though and didn't fair to well. Its a cool combo so its really a shame.
and my first round opponent played a deck of 56 mountains and 4
Countryside Crushers
as far as I could tell. That deck was a pain in the butt combo, especially against a deck as slow as mine.

I consider this a bombo. This is a good start to a very incomplete deck. Your first combo rocks though.

Yeah he went into the final round undefeated where he played this really good player playing mono-red burn. The guy who was sitting near my described it perfectly: "Turn 3 he'll play the Crusher, and Mr. Folsom will figure out what he is doing, turn 4 Mr Folsom will win." And thats pretty much what happened and it was great.
Thanks Imachamp!
I really wish I could have gotten my combo to work, maybe I'll post the deck I was working with for the combo. I think it needs smaller creatures and more card draw, plus maybe mana fixing. I don't know...
