Card Choices:
Combo Lines:
- Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Felidar Guardian/Village Bell-Ringer
Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker taps and creates a hasty-copy of either Felidar Guardian orVillage Bell-Ringer the copies ETB and either Flicker or Untap Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker enabling you to repeat the process unlimited amount of times and swinging with a an unbounded amount of attackers for the win.
1.1. Birthing Pod lines:
Start by having a Un-Tapped Birthing Pod in play with 3x Green-Mana at your ready and 6 life to spare.
You're chain stars at three, luckily our commander Tymna the Weaver happens to be a 3cmc creature we can sacrifice to Birthing Pod, we sac Tymna the Weaver fetch a Felidar Guardian Un-Tap our Birthing Pod, sac the kitty in order to fetch a Karmic Guide get our Felidar Guardian back from the Graveyard thanks to Karmic Guide's ETB Trigger, untap our Birthing Pod once more, this time nabbing ourselves a Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker, creating a copy of Karmic Guide who resurrects the kitty for a second tme and who's ETB untaps Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker allowing us to deomnstarte a simple loop of coping the kitty and untapping the goblin shaman thus creating infinite hasty kitties who can swing at your opponent's face(s).
1.2. Yisan, the Wanderer Bard lines:
For this line we'll need Yisan, the Wanderer Bard at three verses, for your verse 1 you'll fetch any 1cmc dork or Quirion Ranger, at verse two it'll most likely be Priest of Titania or Bloom Tender. With our bard at three verses we can fetch up Village Bell-Ringer untapping card:Yisan, the Wanderer and your dorks, thus going straight into verse four, fetching yourself a Felidar Guardian who'' Flicker Village Bell-Ringer who will once more untapp all your dorks along with Yisan, the Wanderer Bard who can end the song on its fifth and final verse nabbing Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker from your deck, and I believe you know what to do from here on.
P.S. Since you've got both Village Bell-Ringer and Felidar Guardian on the field I'd urge you to copy the Bell-Ringer since you'll be able to create an unbounded amount of mana with your dorks each time a copy hits the field in addition to going up to verse six and seven if your playing cards such as Sun Titan and Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite, just in case you're combo and/or combat phase get disrupted and you need more value on the field.
1.3. Survival of the Fittest and/or Buried Alive line:
I've grouped them up since they're very similar.
1.3.1. Survival of the Fittest, essentially tutor your combo pieces to hand and discard them one by one by paying one green mana each time. You'll want Felidar Guardian and Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker
in your graveyard with Karmic Guide in hand to start the resurrection loop, if you're tight on mana you can discard Karmic Guide and resurrect her using a cheaper reanimation spell if you happen to have on in hand, Reanimate, Animate Dead, card:Life/Death are all stellar choices.
1.3.2. Buried Alive, unlike Survival of the Fittest you are required to have a reanimation spell in hand to start the combo since all three of your combo pieces must be placed in your grave. Also Buried Alive is a dead card when not used as a combo-tutor. I'm shying away from it, but you might like it. If you do not own a Survival of the Fittest it's a great budget option.
- Goblin Sharpshooter + Splinter Twin
Yes.. we could simp,y flash in a Village Bell-Ringer at the end of our opponent's turn and enchant him with Splinter Twin on ours and simply win the game.. but why not make it a little bit more interesting?
The combo goes as following:
We cast Goblin Sharpshooter and unless our opponent's are playing haste outlets that effect us, we pray to the Magic Gods that he survives a turn cycle.. cuz', what's he gonna' do? Shoot someone?
After our goblin friend has miraculously survived and gotten rid of his summoning sickness we can enchant him with Splinter Twin, now here is where it gets interesting tho'.
In order to combo off and deal infinite damage to various faces we'll need a X/1 creature on the field to use a projectile test subject of sorts to start the combo itself, luckily dorks are aplenty in cEDH, also our other commander Tana, the Bloodsower creates a bunch on 1/1 saprolings for us to use as target practice and last but not least we have Forbidden Orchard to create a 1/1 colorless spirit we can shoot.
We tap our original Goblin Sharpshooter creating a hasty token copy of himself, the 2nd Goblin Sharpshooter taps to deal 1 damage to the X/1 target killing it and untapping both the original Goblin Sharpshooter and the token copy. Now we once more tap the original Goblin Sharpshooter and create a 2nd hasty token copy of him, now we have the original and 2 token copies. One copy shoots face, the other copy shoots the copy killing it and untapping the original and itself, we rinse and repeat, demonstrating a loop where we can untap the original Goblin Sharpshooter in order to create a 2nd hasty token copy of himself all the while while shooting face.
TLDR:
(I'll be borrowing a direct line from Luke here)
Splinter Twin + Goblin Sharpshooter + any x/1:
Twin on Sharpshooter #1.
Tap #1 to create #2.
Tap #2 to kill a dork. #1 and #2 untap.
Loop:
Tap #1 to create #3.
Tap #2 to damage face.
Tap #3 to kill itself. #1 and #2 untap.
Huge thanks to user:https://tappedout.net/users/Lerker/, user:http://tappedout.net/users/LabManiac_Luke/ and the rest of the Tana & Tymna discord, stax isn't just a playstyle, its a family.. a huge dysfunctional self-loathing family.
