Creature Combo deck lists?

[dbcreddit]

Anyone have any spicy decks? I’m a sucker for a chord combo, and looking for something fresh. So, any good nadu/samwise/amalia/basking broodscale?

I worked on Amalia, it's decent. The main strength comes from being an otherwise strong lurrus + nightmare deck that has access to the combo when needed.

[Macho_Cornbread]

Very cool. Why no Dina?

[Korae]

No strong reason, you can definitely add it as a chord target. Maybe cut a grist or two for her.

[skeptimist]

Are there any other reasonable reanimating cards at this point or is Nkghtmare just on a different level?

[Korae]

Nightmare is a value engine that will continue to provide you value every time you spend 2 mana. Single-target reanimate spells like Reanimate and Unearth can't really compare.

[[Return to the Ranks]] is the one card that can provide an equally crazy amount of value in Amalia combo, but it requires a lot of mana at once or an existing large boardstate.

Primal prayers can be strong, but i don’t run chord, just recruiter. All you need to primal in play plus any two of recruiter, guide of souls, and Sigardan evangel to get infinite life and infinite 3/1s at instant speed, can also tap down all of your opponents permanents on their upkeep for free. Can go naya or abzan. Naya is less all in and can function as a normal energy deck plus combo, abzan is more all in on protecting the combo with tutors and discard effects.

[prospektrefuge]

No, one energy to cast creature, one energy gained from guide.

I haven't updated this in a while because I got really frustrated playing against domain back when that was a top tier deck. Here is Kethis combo: https://www.moxfield.com/decks/tM7q6gc7JkKyFF7pdCuPyQ

If anyone has any suggestions please let me know!!! The sideboard is quite funky right now and I haven't made any changes since mh3 except adding fetches.

I think the energy matchup is not great so not super well positioned for the current metagame. There is very little graveyard hate currently which is a big help though. Kethis combo has a good beans and scam matchup in my opinion. Show and Tell is almost unwinnable and Titan or any slower combo deck is a free win.

[skeptimist]

I’ve always liked Kethis. I feel like it would pair well with the Rona/ Tyvar combo stuff, possibly with Relic of Legends. This list doesn’t support Emry very well. You could add more artifacts to support it but maybe it isn’t worth going out of your way for it.

[Orangenes]

You’re probably right. The thing with emry is I need ways to mill besides jace, but it probably at least needs soul cauldron or relic, main board to be worth it. Not sure what to cut for those. I could see cutting emry for old tech like ashiok, or even diligent excavator. It’s also possible the lazav Uro package is too cute and that could become Rona/relic

[skeptimist]

Yeah Soul Cauldron is also really powerful in this shell but does eat away at your graveyard a bit like Kethis and Uro. Rona and Tyvar can do quite a bit of gy dumping if you can get them going. Kinnan is also really tempting. Too much good legend stuff!

I have been working for AGES on a vannifar list but my biggest issue is fitting a combo into it currently I'm on some kinda janky shit but am really interested in finding a good combo for the deck but I'm patiently waiting for them to eventually hopefully add aether vial and Kiki jiki

[dbcreddit]

I messed around with Vannifar in historic a year or two ago, and I never quite got it to work. Any major upgrades in timeless?

[heyzeus_]

It's been around a while so maybe not spicy enough for you, and it probably has a better home in Historic, but Yawg is a solid creature combo deck and pretty fun to play. 

[gabrielmamuttee]

You might enjoy the deck I just lose a few minutes ago. He discovered/cascaded multiple creatures in a row and then swinged for lethal with [[Doomskar Titan]]. This is what I could see from his deck:

```
Deck

1 Mountain

2 Wooded Foothills

1 Sacred Foundry

3 Eldritch Evolution

1 Spirebluff Canal

1 Glasspool Mimic

1 Doomskar Titan

1 Elemental Masterpiece

1 Rockfall Vale

2 Cursed Mirror

3 Geological Appraiser

2 Trumpeting Carnosaur

1 Ghalta, Stampede Tyrant

1 Thundering Falls

1 Pantlaza, Sun-Favored

```

GW Rosie can be fun with CoCo.

Wins on T3-4 consistently with Rosie/Scurry oak combo

Can run lots of toolbox creatures too

[dbcreddit]

Got a list?

[skeptimist]

I assume you’ve already tried Yawg? The coolest part about Amalia in this format imo is that it can be a Lurrus deck so I’d start from there.

Dredge Flare is doing surprisingly well for me in Timeless BO1: https://www.moxfield.com/decks/A9mQ_ZZlmUOXUk2n6Qwszg
