What combos do you know of that are in standard? NO Jeskai Ascendancy combos! Anyway leave a comment with a combo that someone else hasn't posted here.

Sage of Hours decks that get near-guaranteed infinite turns with multiple Hardened Scales in play if the opponent can't disrupt it somehow. I've seen that once or twice locally, I don't pay enough attention to Pro Tours and such to know if it has ever been played there.

Butcher of the Horde + Kheru Bloodsucker + Mardu Ascendancy + other token generators. Get a bunch of tokens by whatever means, sac the Ascendancy, sac the tokens to Butcher, and the Bloodsucker kills them. I and at least one other person on these forums independently came up with this super-janky combo that would probably never work in a realistic situation.

Along a similar vein as the Jeskai Ascendancy combo there is the Altar of the Brood + Mardu Ascendancy combo where you keep attacking with nontoken creatures just to make tons of tokes and mill your opponent out.

But if you're looking for anything like the Jeskai Ascendancy combo that wins on the spot, I think someone would've found it already.

Thassa's Ire + Voyaging Satyr + Market Festivalx2 + whatever you want to hit them with. Crater's Claws and Villainous Wealth are two choices.

This is probably a long and suboptimal one, but its a combo.

Use Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx and a bunch of Kiora's Follower and other permaments to generate at least 20 mana. Cast Genesis Hydra as a 20/20+, use Life's Legacy to sac hydra and draw 20+ cards. Cast Master the Way. Win.
