i found crazy synergy during fnm today

Deck Help forum

Posted on Dec. 3, 2012, 6:04 a.m. by zombiewrath

i made a blue and black zombie and it was perfectly fine till i figured out a way to kill my opponent by turn 6 without actually having to attack literally. using Gravecrawler Blood Artist and Grimgrin, Corpse-Born and Rooftop Storm and just sacking Gravecrawler over and over again is an automatic win. please check out my deck and let me know how you like it, any help will be mucho appreaciated The dead are walking

Crazy synergy with a four-card combo? Two of which are over 5+ cmc, and one that's a 0/1...

If the opponent didn't blow you out of the water by the time you got those gears going, or didn't at least have an answer for no more than one out of three different threats, he'd deserve to just lose by merit of non-participation :-\

@Fu3lman: Not every deck has an answer to everything, and you could build an amazing deck and still end up getting screwed through shuffling. To say someone losing to a combo like this and deserves a non-participation loss, is just flat out rude.


Yes, as lovely as this combo is it is hard to pull off, esp if they side in some hate for your zombies.

Honestly, If i was going to try to play this combo I'd find a cheaper sac outlet then Grim Grim. Maybe Bloodthrone Vampire

Yeah, cause then you'd only need the Rooftop Storm after that

You need Gravecrawler , Rooftop Storm , Blood Artist or Falkenrath Noble or Diregraf Captain , and a sac engine like Grimgrin, Corpse-Born or Bloodthrone Vampire or Bloodflow Connoisseur or Falkenrath Torturer or etc...

So get the Rooftop Storm and the Gravecrawler and the other two pieces should be fine. Codex Shredder mills the Gravecrawler and it Treasured Find s the Rooftop Storm .

"To say someone losing to a combo like this and deserves a non-participation loss, is just flat out rude."

Yet it's true. Sorry if that's rude.

@UmbrotheUmbreon: Not all decks can handle everything, but if you can't stop one of the four pieces of this combo, you should probably reevaluate how you build your decks.

Okay but that is no reason to insult a player or their deck building skills.

I didn't insult anyone or their deck building skills. The combo is stupid.

Let it go.

I"ll let it go when you stop being rude.

Wow, this is just a little side combo, that i never realized. The real combo for me is using Gravecrawler and card:Geralf's Messenger and Diregraf Captain in any sort of way. Saying that it is impossible for it to happen, is useless due to the fact that i really wasn't expecting a win like that when i built the deck originally. I'm sorry u did not find cool, i was just really exicted when it happened. i just thought id share my little story, don't have be mean about it.

and the reason, y i hadn't lost is because he was playing a Stuffy Doll deck and was just waiting for me to attack so he could send the damage right back to me. i did not have anything against an indestructible creature especially 3 of them. so before you judge, ask why it happened and how it did.
