Sideboard


And you thought Drakes were worthless.

Don't get me wrong, they're still mostly worthless, but I managed to cobble together an infinite combo using Shrieking Drake, Gemstone Array and Mana Echoes. A few drakes down and you've got an infinite mana source. Simply pop the Shrieking Drake down with a Mana Echoes and a Gemstone Array down, pop the Shrieking Drake back into your hand, put the mana from Mana Echoes into the Array and power another Drake cast.

What do you do with that mana? If you have a Door of Destinies down, that means your two Drake-buddies are arbitrarily large. If you're holding an Enter the Infinite, you can win that turn by popping down an Akroma's Memorial and swinging in with your arbitrarily large Drakes, and doing mad damages. I also run a one-of Kessig Wolf Run because I have one in my collection and it's another thing to drop mana into that isn't a slot in my non-land base.

If you don't get your combo out, you're probably going to die. Drakes are some of the most hilariously underpowered creatures in Magic, and it shows. However, Adaptive Automaton bolsters a creature based tactic if it comes down to it, and you can swing in with a few cheap flying drakes for some damage if it comes to that, however, your main goal is to assemble the combo and go infinite.
