No, im positive that it is an infinite combo. I have used this at a tournament and my opponent called a judge. the judge said that the infinite combo worked.

@geartank

What tournament was this at?

The judge clearly wasn't a very good one at all, because he/she got it wrong. An effect only places +1/+1 counters on a creature if it specifically states that it is a +1/+1 counter (like the bolster ability on GOA for example).

@ Epochalyptik, Sorry for summoning you here, but I know that you are great with the rules, and wondered if you could clear this up for geartank

@K00lDudE1

It was at my lgs in a vintage tournament. the judge was level 2.

The judge was wrong, regardless of what level he or she was.

Gleam of Authority's ability confers a static buff based on the number of +1/+1 counters on your other creatures. Static buffs and counters are not the same thing. Effects that care about or involve counters will always explicitly indicate as such.

So excited to try this deck out against my friends on the kitchen table. Ordered it all online , only had the land and the Gryff's Boons and ended up only spending 11 bucks. Think I'm gonna take out the Investigations for an Angelic Destiny and a Daybreak Coronet. Mad +1s great deck super upvoted. Thanks fam.

Love the look of this deck. I made it a $40 deck with a few blue cards and BAM I am finally getting into modern.

I love the deck, but my one concern is that in modern there are so many 1 mana removal spells which can kill all of your creatures before you have a chance to power them up. My recommendation would be adding some method of giving your guys hexproof or indestructible, but that would probably kill your budget so it's up to you. But I do love the idea of a budget friendly Bogles deck.

Clicked for the JoJo reference, upvoted because the deck seems really funny to play!

Got a ragequit out of this deck on MTGO the other night. Worth the buck's worth of tix for sure.

IS THIS A JOJO REFERENCE?!

I have a Green/Red Satyr and Centaur Heroic based Modern deck that I am now considering changing to Green/White. With Giant Growth and other 1 manna green buff spells with these enchantments will be huge. +1 for the deck as well!

+1 from me. Honestly, might go buy this decklist for my girlfriend tomorrow. Introduced her to mtg less than a year ago, and she is looking to expand her deck library. This seems simple enough to master and fast enough to play fairly competitively.

I run a similar version that she uses, and is like.. 5 times the cost of this, which uses False Cure + Kavu Predator and cards like Invigorate

@geartank If GOA was to place counters and trigger each other, this would be a game breaking combo that would result in a draw, as you have no way of forcefully stopping the combo. the only infinite +1/+1 counter combo from two of the same creatures i can find is Enduring Scalelord and as you can see, it is massively more expensive manna wise than GOA.

The only way this would work is to enchant another creature with GOA and initiate an actual combo infinitely with Scalelord and GOA would boost for the amount of counters placed on him

Ehy BenMonte, I know you haven't been editing this deck for a while, but what about the new Novice Knight instead of Lagonna-Band Trailblazer? It can become pretty big by turn 2

Hey, that sounds like a pretty solid addition, making the deck a bit more agressive. I'll try it out!

Watch out for creature removal, and especially calming verse.(http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=24659)

I would suggest spalshing blue to give one or more creatures unblockable or equipment that does the same. Also Brave the Elements is good to push damageif ypu put it in the main deck. And lastly i dont feel like theres enough cards that give you draw,maybe add mentor of the meek but dont know what to take out for that. Besides that it looks good and look forward to play this.

P.S. Angelic Destiny is good also.
