Modern forum
Posted on Oct. 6, 2013, 7:01 p.m. by brokentoken
I am not a fan of infinite combos as i think they take away from the game but my need to compete outweighs this. I competed in my second modern tourney with a Splinter Twin deck and finished 4th and was ecstatic since the first time i competed i almost won one game of one round the last time i tried.What im looking for is every 2 card iinfinite combo you guys can come up with. Color doesn't matter nor does the effect of the combo i just want some ideas .

Seismic Assault and Swans of Bryn Argoll . Not really infinite but you can draw your whole deck and win.

@Nobilior Unless you draw 2 and don't get a land, then it stops right away.
October 6, 2013 8:28 p.m.
Well, doesn't really help someone's request for infinite combos when your combo has a reasonable likelihood of resulting in "Discard a land: draw 2 cards" and nothing else. No need to be so bitter about it.

Island s + counterspells, possibly the greatest combo in mtg.

Yes, but he was asking for infinite combos. Those are finite, in that there is a limit to the amount of counterspells that you can run in a deck. Unless you imprint Counterspell on an Isochron Scepter . But who's mean enough to do that?

Thats why I said in it NOT infinite! Look at the link I provided right after that and see all the infinite combos on that!
October 6, 2013 9:03 p.m.
Don't mean to come off as mad though. No hard feelings!

I realize that.lol. ok, i need more combos. I actually like the swans but it seems a bit unreliable.

Devoted Druid and Quillspike can go infinite in P/T for Quillboy.
I'm assuming you're using Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker in your Splinter Twin deck.
Grand Architect + Pili-Pala , is infinite mana.

Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Zealous Conscripts
Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Pestermite
Mikaeus, the Unhallowed + Triskelion ( i love this one)
October 7, 2013 12:10 p.m.
Just to be clear, I was joking when I posted the island + counter combo.
October 7, 2013 1:11 p.m.
Elemental Mastery
+ Altar Golem
Thopter Assembly
+ Time Sieve
Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker
or Splinter Twin
+ Pestermite

, or Breaching Hippocamp
Not Infinite, but evil:
Lifespark Spellbomb
targeting an opponent's basic land + Eradicate
.
Wall of Blood
+ Essence Harvest
, Rite of Consumption
, or Fling
.

Not an infinite combo, but I card that works well with Splinter Twin
:
Sundial of the Infinite
.Activate it in response to the trigger to exile the token entering the stack. Keep the token forever.
If it didn't say, "at the beginning of the next end step", then it wouldn't work, but as long as you put out the creature on your team there shouldn't be a problem.For more fun, you do Splinter Twin
on an Akroan Horse
+ Intruder Alarm
.... which would just be rather silly if you ask me.

You can't tap Akroan Horse with Splinter Twin on it, you don't control it when it ETB. Someone else would have play it and give it to you for you to be able tap it, and then your enemy would have a bunch of Akroan Horse tokens. Then would exile before they ever trigger... its just not reasonable. Even, if you put Sundial of the Infinite and/or Intruder Alarm into that mix.

@ItchiUchiha117
I once played against a guy who imprinted Mana Drain with Isochron Scepter .
Talk about mean... lol.
There is a also an infinite combo that says whenever an opponent takes damage, draw a card, and whenever an opponent draws a card, have them take a damage. Forget the cards but it was annoying.
"I'll Lightning Bolt you for threee, and you're dead."

@kataking: I think you're thinking of Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind and a Curiosity , which is also a 2-card combo.
October 8, 2013 4:22 p.m.
Dorotheus, I didn't specify how you ended up with Akroan Horse under your control, just that it would be a possibility if you had. And that's why Sundial of the Infinite is useful with Splinter Twin , since you can respond to the triggers for any tokens you create by activating it, completely exiling every single trigger. Since they will have triggered already, they won't trigger again. Hence, tokens you make can stay.
