Deck Description

just a combo I have pulled off about 5 or 6 times now, but the second combo is my favorite

Here is the turn 3 win combo:

turn 1: forest
turn 2: forest, ichorclaw myr OR Blight Mamba
Turn 3: forest, attack, don't get blocked, play 3 of any combination: groundswell, primal bellow, giant growth

This works better with ichorclaw myr because players don't block the myr as much because they know its +2/+2 when blocked. Mostly they assume "I can take 1 poison counter!"

The Second Combo
Turn 1: Forest, Llanowar Elves
Turn 2: Forest, Mighty Emergence
Turn 3: Forest, Llnowar Elves, Llanowar Elves
Turn 4: Forest, Putrefax + any instant for 10 or if you got 3 llnowars and went second 2 instants in case of mini blocker.

Its really fun, though it requires the perfect draw. Trust me, when your opponent realizes what you have just done with either combo its hilarious. The second combo is more tricky and requires you go second and its not as effective.

Deck discussion for Infect Combo

28 lands is far, far too many lands to be running in a deck with Llanowar Elves AND birds. You have no meta to stop removal. And you're only running 8 offensive creatures, as opposed to 16 support cards. It's very, very easy to get caught here with a hand full of support, and no creatures to play it on. With so much of your deck being 1 drops, i think you can go down to 22 lands. I'd also recommend Oran-Rief, the Vastwood, because it's another pump.

You mention blight mamba in your description, but aren't running it; and i think you'll find that the Ichorclaw Myr's +2/+2 isnt' going to stop anyone from blocking it; these infect decks are everywhere right now; nobody is going to just decide "oh, it's only 1 poison counter" because every infect deck out there is running pump spells. Any opponent who has any knowledge of the current format will automatically assume that you have a hand full of pump.
