A Sultai toolbox infinite selfmill loop combo deck with reanimation, control and zombie aggro sub themes.I've been gathering ideas and cards for this deck for 2 years. Still needs some testing, fine tuning and adjustments though.

The Combos

Our goal is to achieve an infinite selfmill loop. With our commander on the battlefield and Dread in the library, Sidisi, Brood Tyrant generates us infinite number of tokens.

When we are in the infinite selfmill loop:

Channeler Initiate + Devoted Druid + Necrotic Ooze -> Infinite Mana - Cast the commander infinite times with sac outlet (Grimgrin, Corpse-Born, Jarad) -> Infinite Selfmill and zombies

Aphetto Alchemist + Mesmeric Orb -> Infinite Selfmill

Altar of Dementia + Extractor Demon + Sidisi, Brood Tyrant + zombies -> Infinite Zombies -> Infinite mill

Altar of Dementia + Tombstone Stairwell + creatures in yard -> Mill down opponents

Dakmor Salvage + The Gitrog Monster + Discard step -> Mill down the deck

Update: Added Laboratory Maniac combo for more ways to win. Swapped out Kozilek, Butcher of Truth with Dread.

Laboratory Maniac + Mill down the deck + Deep Analysis flashback -> Win

Plan B - Assemble the Zombie Horde

Our combos are vulnerable and can be distrupted by counterspells, graveyard removal or creature/artifact removal. (the only protections are Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir and Glen Elendra Archmage) If we cannot win by combo, we have ways to win with the zombie horde:

I tried out the deck two times: - The first match was 4 player free for all. There was a Doomsday Kess and a Thrasios player. They used their counterspells against each other. I won in the 5th turn with an Altar of Dementia combo. - The second match was against a Marath and a Hapatra player. I played Buried Alive and reanimated a Necrotic Ooze. They don't have removals in their hands, so I managed to generate infinite mana and tutor for Jarad with Survival of the Fittest.

Conclusions: - People don't consider Sidisi as a threat for the first time. When they realize what's going on, then it's too late. - I usually win with combo instead of reanimation and aggro. So some counterspells or other kind of combo protection would be a nice addition. (But I also have to keep the creature count high) - Haste is a must for Necrotic Ooze
