There's sort of a long story behind this deck, but I won't get into it. Suffice it to say, I didn't come up with this, but it's such a strange combo AND it's in Type 2, (Which makes it even stranger, IMO), that I figured I really should share it with the CPA.
The kill condition isn't anything special: Infinite Mana + Something. Although this is technically an infinite spell casting loop too, which is interesting.
Before I give you a decklist, let me explain the engine. While there are multiple combo pieces, you only need to have one in play and one in hand in order to go off. Here it is:
*Future Sight in play.
*Dwell on the Past in hand.
*Your library should be EMPTY, (That's the fun/strange part).
*In your graveyard there needs to be two Early Harvests and two other Dwell on the Pasts.
*Cast Dwell on the Past, targeting your Early Harvests and your other Dwell on the Pasts.
*You can recursively cast Dwell on the Past and Early Harvest now, thanks to Future Sight, allowing you infitnite mana. When you're ready, just grab something that can abuse this, (Ambassador Laquatus most likely). Technically, a looong string of unlucky shuffles could screw you over, (If the Dwell on the Pasts keep showing up on top), but you can just wait until next turn to try again.
What makes this deck fun is that the rest of the cards are just trying to plow through your own deck as fast as possible. Believe it or not, this can go off by turn 7 or so fairly consistently. It's stupid, and it's fun.
So here's my list:
Land:
Island x12
Forest x8
Creatures:
Ambassador Laquatus x2
Hapless Researcher x4
Krosan Wayfarer x3
Spells:
Early Harvest x2
Dwell on the Past x4
Future Sight x4
False Memories x4
Brain Freeze x4
Careful Study x4
Mental Note x4
Deep Analysis
So, what's the verdict?
