The more common use of Aetherflux Reservoir is with Sensai's Divining Top, and Bolas's Citadel along with some kind of cost reduction like Helm of Awakening or Foundry inspector. Bit much of a combo but it's not really that hard to "put together" as it may seem. A neat combo that players will use in Aristocrat decks will use a persist creature with some effect on field that gives a 1/1 counter to a creature entering the battlefield. The +1/+1 counter negates the -1/-1 counter the persist keyword gives, however, the persist trigger ALWAYS happens before the 1/1 counter is put on it. For Example; Muderous Redcap ETB's through persist and does ONE damage to any target, then sees the 1/1 counter negating the -1/-1 counter from persist. Thank you for your time reading all this hope it was helpful.
I appreciate you mentioning the dramatic reversal combo, I had my eye on that months ago for my Obeka deck and forgot until now. (Already had the scepter in for other silliness)
@@gilliusthunderhead2185 I'm building mine as sneak attack, reanimated, wheel. Probably take the wheels out and add card draw will have to play to find out
@@gilliusthunderhead2185it's mostly about creating lots of copies that are supposed to disappear at the end of turn and I keep them with Obeka. Also lots of low cost instant spells to protect Obeka and combo with. Plus a handful of other Obeka tricks and synergies.w
One of my favorite combos I accidentally learned about was Sydri, Galvanic Genius and Mycosynth Lattice. Lattice says all my mana can be blue. All your lands are artifacts. And Sydri says if I pay 1 blue mana, I destroy 1 land. I pay everything to keep you from every having a land again
Just built a powerful Skittles deck, and I love it because you can toolbox so many dragon combos. I think my favourite is moltensteel/Skithiryx. It only kills 1 player, but damn if it's not super fun to pull off.
I use Aetherflux Reservoir in my Sydri deck since she can give it lifelink. Works just like exquisite blood. I have never pulled off the combo though. Usually just get out a Mycosynth Lattice and nuke everyone’s lands
Great video, love how you went across a bunch of different colors. Forgot I bought a Temur Sabertooth, and have Dockside so I guess that's going in my next R/G deck.
How does that happen? 1st, put bounceland into play 2nd, stack etb to bounce the land 3rd, put the land in play with kodama. 4th... Bounce the land okay, but.. since you put it down with kodama's ability you can not put it down again until next turn unless you have "play extra land" cards, and even then you can only do so, so many times.
@@markomalmi7989 so with Kodama in play, for example, I use scute swarm. 1. Play your bounce land, scute swarm triggers. 2. Order your triggers right, bounce the bounce land to your hand, then scute swarm resolves. 3. When the scute token enters, Kodama triggers, and allows you to put the bounce land into play. 4. Repeat and you get infinite scute swarms, and infinite etb's
I recently made a deck featuring Sengir, The Dark Baron and Reyhan, Last of the Abzan that has a similar strategy to the aetherflux reservoir and Exquisite blood combo shown in the video. using sengir's ability that gains the life of an opponent whenever they lose the game. then using the extra life with aetherflux to hit another person for 50 gain their life and so on. Was pretty cool to see something similar to it in a video
one of the things that took me and all the other players way out the game was some combo with sydri, galvanic genius and aetherflux reservoir because all you need is to Have more than 50 at start. pay WB to give it deathtouch AND LIFELINK and then ping a player for 50. and and ping the next and the next all the while gaining back the 50 life every time becuase it's "does damage" as the text (and to add. no. we could not stop it because the player also had Pradeem out)
You can also use Doomsday with Thassa's Oracle for a less instant win but a win non the less. Also Thassa, Deep-Dwelling along with Biblioplex Assistant and Galvanoth along with some extra turn spell makes a really good combo. Yes it requires a lot of cards but if you add in green then it'd be easier to get that. I'd actually recomend using Riku of Two Reflections as your commander so you can basically get two instant or sorceries for two mana if you want
My favorite is definitely Zaxara the Exemplary with Pimmin's Aura or Freed from the Real. This Combo gives you infinite colored mana, and as a GBU commander, Zaxara has access to tons of Tutors, Card Draw, Ramp, Counterspells, Removal, Recovery and Mana Sinks that you can use to get either of the two cards in safely and consistently
I remember someone pulling off the dramatic reversal on a stick, in his excitement, he forgot I have painful quandary on the board. When he finished his combo, I simply said, "So basically you killed yourself."
My favorite recently discovered combo is "kenrith, returned king" "great whale" and any sac outlet. You sac the whale to the outlet then reanimate with kenriths black ability repeatedly, netting mana each time. Then once you have infinite mana, you activate kenriths blue ability 5000 times on each of your opponents
Lol I have those Reiterate combos in my Vadrik deck. Also, Brass's Bounty can also with Reiterate. Reiterate has a lot of combos and can easily be broken. One fun combo is Turnabout + Reiterate + (pick a spell with the storm ability like Grapeshot or Brain Freeze)
My favourite 'infinite' combo is mind over matter and Arcanis, the Omnipotent. Unlimited card draw, and enough mana to cast plenty of counterspells. Play Lab maniac after drawing your entire library and you win. Once mind over matter resolves with Arcanis on the battlefield you can't lose.
See most of this would be super problematic, but my playgroup mutually agreed to not run 2 card infinite combos (or I win immediately combos Thoracle Consultation) and it’s made games a lot more fun (we play casually) when somebody can’t just win out of the blue with an empty board and the necessary 2 cards in hand
@@xgxwills2857 there are legit "one card" combos, like playing a spellseeker with inalla in the command zone will win you the game assuming your deck is set up to follow the combo line, same with having a protean hulk die in a hulk deck
@@swampyswamperton6536 true. Though my group doesn’t usually run those cards as we aren’t really heavy on tutors either since we’re more into playing ‘bombs’ than tutors to increase the variability of games.
@@Dragon_Fyre I 100% agree, we also as a playgroup agreed to chill on the counterspells and run a bit more spot removal instead so that people can actually play their cards and not have 6-7 of their spells get countered each game.
My Witherbloom deck is built around Dina, Soulsteeper and has Exquisite Blood as well as the others you mentioned. It's become enough of a problem that last I played it, the other 3 players focused me down super early on 🤣 I've also NEVER been able to use Exquisite Blood... The one time it wouldn't have been countered, the last opponent had nefarious lich and something else I think. Either way, it didn't matter if he lost life even below 0 🤦♂️
I wish they changed the rule for wish cards for commander. like I understood why they changed it for sanctioned events because people would legit bring in their collection but they never changed the wording of it even though we have newer wish cards printed outside of the original cycle. luckily my physical play group is okay for what we call a wish list and the things we wish for are really dumb stuff and not combo pieces.
You can also combo Basalt Monolith in a much more "fair" way by pairing it with Rowan Kenrith. With Rowan, you need to use her -8 to get the emblem that lets you copy abilities. Since it's a -8 it's a lot more difficult to resolve than just playing a Forsaken Monument or something, but since it's an emblem once it resolves it's also harder to deal with. But your opponents should know better than to let you get the -8 off, and Rowans other abilities are just godawful, so it's significantly more of a fair way to pull off the combo. It's a minimum 3 turns of Rowan on the board before you get the emblem.
Heliod-Ballista is substantially cheaper in terms of mana investment than Mike and Trike, so probably better. I actually run Mikaeus and Walking Ballista in my grindy Meren deck because it can be tutored off Protean Hulk and the deck already has Blood Artists and value sac outlets to capitalize on it (since unlike Trike, Ballista can't shoot your opponents before shooting itself and thus requires a free sac outlet to kill). Mike and Trike is the classic, but 12 mana is a lot more than 7 for Heliod (plus his activation) and a Ballista with one counter - plus Ballista's mana sink utility gives it something to do when you're not comboing, while Trike is both expensive and underwhelming without lots of recursion (three damage can maybe snipe a utility creature or two and that's about it, unless you add another card like Basilisk Collar).
You sure basalt works with Forgotten Monument? I thought the diamond was SPECIFICALLY colorless while the number is generic or something-- like how the titans need specifically colorless mana, or how certain mana rocks tap for colorless colorless instead of 2 generic. Maybe it's fixed with oracle text or something, I don't know.
@@gabrielthompson8660 it’s a hard balance between wizards and instants and sorceries, I had to take out all the mage craft wizards and wizards they have instant and society triggers. Currently I have some big X spells and wizards that reduce costs. By far my favorite card in the deck is beguiler of wills
I try to not build combos that instantly win but now and then it happens anyway. Staff of Domination and untapping something for endless mana to draw my deck, tap everything else and play all my creatures with hate and buffs is one I admit I could have. 😂

There are a lot of ways to win by infinite turns, but here's one that's so janky I don't think anyone would be able to be mad: Any extra turn that does not exile itself + Mystic Sanctuary + any Moonfolk You need a Moonfolk that returns a single land for the combo to be infinitely self-sustainable, but if you're running this in a Patron of the Moon deck, you can use basically any Moonfolk at all and use your commander to drop back the extra returned lands
The combination at 11.11 isn't correct right? Because this assumes that generic mana = colorless mana. Which it's not. Colorless mana is devoid of color and often devoid or things like eldrazis need devoid mana besides the generic
@@lol1leven Sol Ring was first printed in the same set as Basalt Monolith, using the "add 2" language. Modern printings of both cards use the new colorless mana symbol, which was created for Oath of the Gatewatch in order to give Eldrazi cards colorless casting requirements.
Regarding the Aetherflux Reservoir and Exquisite Blood combo. Unless there was a rule change I am not aware of, a player cannot lose more life then they actually have. So if you trigger Aetherflux's 2nd ability, and your opponent only has 20 life, you would only gain 20 life from Exquisite Blood. All you judges, please correct me if my understanding is wrong.
@@nanka337 Thanks Nanka. I stand corrected. 118.3. If an effect causes a player to gain life or lose life, that player’s life total is adjusted accordingly. 118.4. If a cost or effect allows a player to pay an amount of life greater than 0, the player may do so only if his or her life total is greater than or equal to the amount of the payment. If a player pays life, the payment is subtracted from his or her life total; in other words, the player loses that much life. (Players can always pay 0 life.)
Why do I never see people say Kiki + Coercive Recruiter? It's moderately funnier as it also steals every creature on the board and gives your whole board haste, infinite untaps, and pirate type (if that matters).
I was playing with my friends and we had an umbris deck who exiled over 40+ cards from everyone, Another player played karn used the -2 grabbed Lattice and played it. the only time ive ever seen the -2 used in commander lmao
Generally, Commander is played without sideboards (since as a casual format, nobody's playing best-of-3 and 99 card singleton would make a sideboard significantly less sensible). That said, in kitchen table play most Wish effects are treated as "search _your collection_ for such and such card," so you can always just bring some cards to Wish for and your opponents will probably let you unless it's a competitive pod.
If someone has the exquisite blood + aetherflux resevoir, make sure that when they target you after paying aetherflux resevoir's 50 life cost that you concede so that you dont lose life and then they can't continue the combo :)

easier to do in one turn too
Zaxara and freed from the real. In an x spell deck is scary.
What about Sphinx of the second sun and Progenitor mimic
That doesn't quite do what you think it does :)
@@bedwarssweat6205 sorry, I meant helm of the host, not progenitor mimic

Can you rename the video "why they should ban all Blue cards?"
Combos to fear? More like combos I will be putting in all my decks.

I thought in commander you can have a 15 card “wish board” for cards like karn that let you get stuff from outside the game?
Generally, Commander is played without sideboards (since as a casual format, nobody's playing best-of-3 and 99 card singleton would make a sideboard significantly less sensible). That said, in kitchen table play most Wish effects are treated as "search _your collection_ for such and such card," so you can always just bring some cards to Wish for and your opponents will probably let you unless it's a competitive pod.
Usually not, but you're always welcome to discuss it with your playgroup
If your playgroup is fine with it, sure. But unfortunately there is no wish boarding in the official rules.
Hot take : Infinite Combos are a lazy cheap way to win.
And now another breya deck tech..wait? Not a deck tech? But all these combo fit in breya....nevermind
If someone has the exquisite blood + aetherflux resevoir, make sure that when they target you after paying aetherflux resevoir's 50 life cost that you concede so that you dont lose life and then they can't continue the combo :)
Toxic
y'all are ruining this format
even 2 years ago this was old stuff and boring.
You can hear the derision in Mitch's voice when he talks about all of these. I don't think he's a fan of combos.
Hi Mitch have you ever put Echoing Truth into a deck? I find it is a great way to board wipe one type of Token, since it returns all
