This is a creature heavy, combo centric Inalla, Archmage Ritualist build centered around wizards with ETB triggers to combo with Inalla's Eminence ability. We aim to close out the game by creating infinite hasty wizard tokens which either swing at our opponents or combo with Purphoros, God of the Forge / Impact Tremors or even Inalla, Archmage Ritualist activated ability.

Infinite Combos

Bloodline Necromancer + Ashnod's Altar + Eminence = infinite mana and hasty tokens.

  • Cast Necromancer and recur a wizard if you want. Put Eminence on the stack.
  • Sac the original Necromancer to Ashnod's Altar and net some mana.
  • Use the Necromancer token from Eminence to recur the original Necromancer followed by another wizard.
  • Use Eminence to copy your Necromancer and repeat the cycle as many times as you like.

Dualcaster Mage or Naru Meha, Master Wizard + Ghostly Flicker, Displace or Illusionist's Stratagem = Infinite flickers that can chain into a variety of effects. Here's an example...

Fun Interactions

Glen Elendra Archmage can be sacrificed infinitely to Ashnod's Altar or Viscera Seer as long as Sage of Fables or Metallic Mimic is on the field as the additional +1/+1 counter cancels the -1/-1 counter from Persist. You can use this trick for infinite tokens via eminence or mana. This also keeps Glen Elendra Archmage around for all the counters you hope.

Disciple of Bolas + Inalla, Archemage Ritualist gets you 4 cards and 4 life for 5 mana. It looks like this...

  • Cast Disciple of Bolas
  • Put Disciple of Bolas ETB on the stack
  • Put Inalla, Archemage Ritualist Eminence trigger on the stack
  • Inalla, Archemage Ritualist effect resolves and a Disciple of Bolas token comes into play, put its ETB effect on stack
  • The token's ETB resolves, sacrificing the original Disciple of Bolas to draw 2 cards and gain 2 life
  • The original's ETB resolves, sacrificing the token Disciple of Bolas for the same effect

Venser, Shaper Savant and AEther Adept are both reusable when combined with Inalla, Archemage Ritualist. Here's an example using Venser.

Purphoros, God of the Forge and Impact Tremors consistently damage our opponents while we play wizards. They get even better with Panharmonicon or Molten Echoes in play.

Thassa, Deep-Dwelling and Conjurer's Closet get us more ETB effects from our wizards.

Trophy Mage and Tribute Mage grab combo pieces and mana rocks
