Those who hear her go mad with inspiration.

My first Queen Marchesa deck, The Whispers of Power, managed to consistently pull together either Solemnity + Delaying Shield or Solitary Confinement + Queen Marchesa (the monarchy). While that certainly prolongs games, it can't win them. This deck is the infinite-combo evolution of that one, centered around Solemnity (the cornerstone of The Whispers of Power) and the persist mechanic, particularly Murderous Redcap.

Here are the main combos, some of them infinite:

• Solemnity + Delaying Shield
• Solemnity + Phyrexian Unlife
• Solemnity + Murderous Redcap + {sac outlet}
• Solemnity + Cauldron Haze + {any non-token creature} + {sac outlet}
• Leonin Relic-Warder + Necromancy/Animate Dead + {trigger}

{sac outlet} = one of:

• Goblin Bombardment
• Altar of Dementia

{trigger} = one of:

• Zulaport Cutthroat
• Bastion of Remembrance
• Cruel Celebrant

I'm also running Final Fortune + Sundial of the Infinite + Isochron Scepter because it's dumb and this deck's black tutors are far more likely to pull it off than the red wheels of What's the worst that can happen?.
