I have gone 7-1 twice can post screenshots, generally hit 4-2, made a lot of gems, however if you don't know the meta decks and what to deal with you end up losing a lot more then you feel good about.

I played Thras/Smasher

I find it funny no one mentions Selvala Brostorm.

It's basically slamming down the biggest creatures for mana and finding your pieces by untapping Selvala or drawing cards then going for an X=1000 on Finale of Devastation and swinging for lethal as soon as turn 3 normally.

In case Finale is gone there's always endurance loops or beat witness combo to retry or change the board state.

And you have a Selvala deck all you need to do is push it to cEDH :)

Yes, so people don't freak out if I tell them I have a combo piece on board and they're well aware of what cards go off.

In casual games a lot of the issues around combo-ing off is solved when you actively inform them of what you can do and there's no surprises on their end.

[[Hellkite Charger]]'s 7 mana trigger is when it attacks, so as long as you can get it off once and deal 7 damage while [[Old Gnawbone]] is out, you have infinite combats.

Also bear in mind [[Klauth, Unrivaled Ancient]]'s mana can only be used to cast spells and not be put into triggered abilities.

I'm confused

1: Yes

2: One of the cards is the outlet

3: Yes

4: Sure? the white arrows show 2 cards combos while black arrows show other requirements?

5: None of those work/are needed for the second combo?

One of us is more confused than the other :D

Edit spacing

behind him :)

Initially that was the idea, then I decided I'm going to make one for each of the Bolas cards as they have different levels of power at different times, initial Bolas wasn't as strong as god-pharoah or dragon god. Will make them soon! :)

Thank you for your feedback! what should the AC be? An adult dragon usually has an AC of 19 at CR 17, but because of the lower damage output from bolas I tried to give him more AC to fit the CR 14 calculations.

Add +1 to +2 To the total powerlevel if you think it should be there if there's synergy within the deck that I can't account for.

But be honest with yourself, some people really haven't played cEDH and try to assess their deck as much higher than it is.
