Preface

This was intended as a budget deck. I included myrs because they are cheap and I personally like them. I admit that they are not exceptionally powerful, but...

Combos and such:

Myr Landshaper + Sydri, Galvanic Genius - kill any landUsing loquimetal instead would have more applications, like animating enemy enchantments & walkers, but I like the myr for tribal reasons. Dross Scorpion lets you destroy ALL of your opponents' lands in play.(if you have Mycosynth Lattice instead)

Dreamstone Hedron + Sydri, Galvanic Genius + Voltaic Construct - You animate the hedron (or Everflowing Chalice with at least 3 conters) with Sydri then tap it for 3 mana. Use 2 of that mana to activate the ability of the construct. You now have one mana floating, and an untapped hedron. Repeat to generate infinite colorless mana. You can then use all that mana to mill someone out with Blue Sun's Zenith deal infinite damage to an opponent with Death Grasp, or with Mycosynth Lattice making it so that mana can be spent as though it were mana of any color, cast your entire hand or steal Every permanent with Memnarch.orUse infinte mana to infintely untap Myr Turbine or Staff of Nin to either spawn in the unholiest clusterflop of tokens or do 1 billion damage to every player

Plague Myr + Cranial Plating = ez infect gaming

Myr Propagator + Palladium Myr + Myr Galvanizer + Phyrexian Metamorph = infinte tokens

Thopter Assembly + Time Sieve- Every turn Thopter Assembly bounces back into your hand to give you 5 thopters. Sacrifce these to the Time Sieve to take an extra turn. As long as you resummon thopter assembly during each of your turns you can get the 5 thopters again and indefinitely pay the 5 artifact extra turn cost of time sieve

Unincorporated combos:

Sword of the Meek + Thopter Foundry + Karak-Clan ironworks or Ashnod's Altar = infinite mana and life and thopters

Darksteel Forge + Mycosynth Lattice + Nevinyrral's Disk - Everyone knows what this one does. It makes all your friends hate you. Well, that, and it makes all the permanents, including lands, your opponents control go boom. Every turn if necessary.

Memnarch + Mycosynth Lattice - Ok, so not ALL the combos are about destroying your opponents' stuff. This one is about stealing it. Mycosynth Lattice makes every permanent in play stealable with Memnarch. Try using it with....

Prototype Portal + Ugin's Nexus - Maybe infinite turns is more your style? Then put the nexus under the portal and make a token copy of it. Then you can use a sacrifice outlet like Phyrexia's Core or Trading Post to sac the token and take an extra turn. On that turn, make a token and sac it to take another. Boom, infinite turns.

Etherium Astrolabe + Mycosynth Lattice - Sac any permanent to draw a card. Simple and fair.

Phyrexian Metamorph + Prototype Portal - Make a clone of anything every turn.

Kill Switch + Mycosynth Lattice - Lock down all the other players, allowing no one but you to take any real action on your turn.

Blood Artist + Phyrexian Metamorph + Sharuum the Hegemon - And then there's this. The combo that entire decks are built around. Gross.
