My paper list of Gitrog Combo in an equally combo heavy meta.

Win Cons Show

The Gitrog Monster is extremely flexible to board state, so this in no way a comprehensive list of wincons. These are the more typical ways of winning a game.

• Dakmor Salvage + Putrid Imp + The Gitrog Monster This is by far the most common and cheapest way manawise to win the game, and how you would win turn one.

• A Discard Outlet ( Putrid Imp , Noose Constrictor , Wild Mongrel , Oblivion Crown ), The Gitrog Monster , Golgari Grave-Troll , and a way to make draw triggers.

Above you can replace Grave-Troll with Life From the Loam and it will work just as well. This is how you dig for Dakmor if you do not have a tutor. With a fetch land or Squandered Resources to make draw triggers you discard Grave-Troll and dredge it back to your hand either making more draws or whiffing and starting over.

• You can win on other players turns as well with Emergence Zone , and Runic Armasaur when they try to go infinite. Intruder alarm, Yisan, and Hermit Druid decks require infinite activations of creatures that are not mana abilities to win in turn drawing your whole deck for you. If you only have runic armasaur on the battlefield, they draw your deck for you and you have atleast one open mana do this: Exile Elvish Spirit Guide for one green, use this to cast crop rotation grabbing Emergence Zone . Sac Emergence zone with your open mana and drop your rocks to cast a discard outlet and take control of the stack.

Kill loop once you have drawn your deck

1. Discard any land

2. Draw trigger on the stack discard ulamog and shuffle in the land and ulamog

3. Discard dakmor and dredge 2 creating a second draw trigger and shuffling again

4.Cast dark ritual

5.Discard dakmor again, dredge again creating a third draw trigger and shuffling all three cards into your library.

7.Draw all three cards and you are back at step 1 with three extra black mana. Repeat step 1-6 for infinite black mana.

8.Replace dark ritual in the loop with Ebony Charm to kill your opponents.
