The New Infinite Turns Combo

by xxxElesh_Nornxxx on 29 April 2014

Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

i need a card to make me win after i have that much life it would help if you posted a card you know that could help.


and this deck is not legal in anything cuz of brainstorm

How to Play

what you do is play sage of hours then play ajani and give the sage three counter then do that next turn or this turn if he has 5, then put enchantments on him like 2 so that he gets 5 +1 counters a turn and then there you go infinite turns so u can use ajani to get 10,000 life points

Deck discussion for The New Infinite Turns Combo

I LOVE IT!!! Great job man! I couldn't think of any deck that would win with the sage. I tried Forced Adaptation and
Primal Cocoon+some evolve creatures but i couldn't think of anything else

Here's a way to win with Sage, enchant him with Righteous Authority and draw some cards.

@MurderHood -- Righteous Authority doesn't really help here since the Sage needs counters (not just a +1/+1 effect).

@MurderHood yea I was thinking the same thing been tinkering around with sage of hours, was hoping with vensers journal, and massive draw power I could put righteous authority onto sage of hours and instantly get a crap load of turns that way, but nope.

How about Doubling Season. It will make Ajani enter the battlefield with twice as many Loyalty counters instantly being able to gain 100 life. As well as doubling the amount of counters placed on Sage of Hours whenever a spell targets him.

306.5b A planeswalker is treated as if its text box included, "This permanent enters the battlefield with a number of loyalty counters on it equal to its printed loyalty number." This ability creates a replacement effect.

10/1/2005: Doubling Season affects cards that "enter the battlefield with" a certain number of counters. Triskelion, for example, would enter the battlefield with six +1/+1 counters on it rather than three.

thats cool to know but that card might not be right for the deck (MIGHT)

Posted 30 April 2014 at 05:54

But even if you don't use Doubling Season for Ajani, wouldn't you still be doubling the counters you put on Sage of Hours, just another card to help get to that win con?

There is no need for a post win win condition. You never stop taking turns... eventualy you should win even if you keep swinging with a 1/1 flyer..... or a 5/5 turn generator

no. its nice to hit your win conditions.

anything extra in a combo deck just makes you less likely to hit your win condition. You'll be doing yourself a disservice playing a life gain win combo if players are going to sweep when you say I get 60 turns.

Just thought of this. Forgotten ancient could be good here. At lest for a few turns. :). Or anything with proliferate. Like steady progress or something.

You can make the same combo in standard without sacreficing the ability to just win by beatdown.
if you make a deck that's illeagal in every single format and ask for a single card to make you win, you truly can't play magic. That said, throw in Whispersilk Cloak.

And why are you playing only 1 version of Ajani? Ajani, Caller of The Pride is a win condition in himself and it combos with your current infinite turns by being able to grow larger while getting more loyalty, also swinging with flying doubble strike tends to win games fast, topping off with oly being 3 mana? pretty damn insane as aggression goes and works well late too.

If you really want to go for the combo? Put in isachron Sceptre and imprint either fog or Silence.

If you want alternative win conditions why not throw in a spell or two that gives a poison counter then throw in something that lets you proliferate each turn (like thrumingbird but an artifact or enchantment instead. Creatures are more likley to be removed)

Also you have litterally nothing to fetch lands with so why are you playing more shocklands? You really should play Checking Tapplands (like Sunpetal Grove) and or Fast Lands (like Seachrome Coast).

Now feel free to rage all all you want for me not buttering up to this deck, but you frankly need to do better. Here's a path you can take that goes the right direction.

The Ajani he's using is the one that allows him to get 5 counters on sage of hours every turn, along with the two enchantments that add counters. Not a lot of room in this deck for other Ajanis, since he specifically needs that one for the combo.

i can have both types of ajani's out at once?

-1
Posted 30 April 2014 at 13:59

My answer is: almost certainly no. I know that only one copy of a particular Planeswalker can be on the field, under the M14 rules. Different Planeswalker cards that have the same subtype can't be on the field together ... they are considered the same card (this ONLY applies to Planeswalker cards) The Planeswalker permanent on the field is sacrificed when the other comes onto the battlefield from any other zone or outside of the game.

On the other hand, I have heard rumblings that the legend rule (same as above, but for legendary creatures) is to be removed from the game. I don't know if this change affects Planeswalker cards. It probably won't, since the change was made to nerf clones. Basically, clone = force opponent to sacrifice a legend without targeting it (the copy ability targets the clone) and place a copy of it under your control. That a 2 or 4 CMC clone could troll any legend in the game, then steal it, was completely and utterly OP and really diminished the legendary archetype. However, this was never a problem with Planeswalkers - in fact, there is way too little removal against them.

0

i believe the ruling now is that each player can have their own copy of the planeswalker on the field, but no one person may control two planeswalkers of the same type, so me and my opponent can each have our own jace on the field, but if one of us were to take control of the other's one of them would have to be sacrificed. this applies to legendaries as well

1
Posted 30 April 2014 at 18:33

Permalink

pain42 is 100% correct. Each person's board can have the same planeswalker. Neither of those players can control multiple of the same planeswalker type at the same time. Once one additional planeswalker of the one type enters the battlefield, its owner chooses and sacrifices one of their choice.

I would definitely second removing the Strionic Resonators. 2x Vorel of the Hull Clade (which expedites the counter growth at a much faster rate) and maybe a Counterspell/Dissipate/etc. in their place.

1
Posted 01 May 2014 at 15:35

Permalink

I feel like that's probably a solid move. Very much in line with the Vorel move. The only awkward part is finding a way to get it to be tapped, since swinging in with it won't be super easy in the early game, though might be much easier in the extra turns (when it's not quite as helpful). Good synergy for sure since it can also double Ajani's counters.

Aqueous Form to go with Gilder Bairn, and Thrummingbird, along with the infinite turns combo this will ensure once you're taking those turns you can deal consistent damage on those turns, perhaps lose a Brainstorm (or two)? I'd also take out 2 Mana Leaks for 2 Dispel (because your main problem is going to be Kill Spells and Counters, and Dispel deals with both for the most part).

I like how you are using proliferate to add counters. The only suggestion I can think of is since you are playing so much blue maybe run some couterspells in the main board otherwise with the amount of removal in the meta right now I don't think you would be able to get the combo off before you sage was taken out. I made standard version of the infinite combo deck check out and let me know what you think. I like your deck I think mine might have some mana issues. http://www.mtgvault.com/michaelkoon/decks/standard-infinte-turns-combo/

I am in the process of doing something like this but Standard format for fun... Ajani, SunBond, and the Sage of Hours... enchant with the Sunbond before popping the +100 life, which means 100 +1/+1 tokens on the Sage, then attack because why not, then sac the tokens for 20 free turns... that will end the game right there! With cards like Doubling Season, you can pull the combo off faster, as well as Rhox the Faithmender to double lifegain (although not Standard playable I don't think). I already have these cards slated to add to my Kiora Populate deck... just another fun way to win hehe
