Welcome to the Machine. Prepare for harvesting. Your sacrifice will not be forgotten.

The gears of war perpetually turn, loyal fodder stoking the engines of mechanized death. Whatever scrap remains is rebuilt and sent into the fire once more. So it continues, artificial lambs march to the slaughter in hopes that their energy shall carry the Machine to victory.

---

Take command of an endless swarm of robotic servants, ready to do your bidding on the frontline or in the belly of the mechanical beast. The name of the game is death. A few casualties are to be expected on the path to domination. Don't feel too bad, though. You can always make more. Build your Servo, Myr, Thopter and Construct army to epic proportions then choose your destiny. Do you lead a full frontal assault, or do you feed your soldiers to the infinite?

Infinite Damage No. 1

Cards required:

• Blasting Station
• Ashnod's Altar
• Rot Shambler
• Animation Module
• Parallel Lives

The process:

• Sacrifice a creature to Ashnod's Altar. This triggers Rot Shambler and floats 2 mana
• Use 1 mana to pay into Animation Module to make a Servo, doubling it with Parallel Lives
• Sacrifice one Servo to Blasting Station dealing 1 damage and triggering Rot Shambler and Animation Module again
• Blasting Station untaps

• Repeat this process until your opponents have been slaughtered

Infinite Damage No. 2

Cards required:

Walking Ballista

Decoction Module

Fabrication Module

Animation Module

Ashnod's Altar

The process:

• Activate either Walking Ballista or Animation Module to place a counter on Walking Ballista
• Animation Module triggers, pay 1 to create a Servo
• Decoction Module + Fabrication Module + Animation Module trigger sequentially
• Use tokens and Ashnod's Altar for the cost of Animation Module
• Place all +1/+1 counters on Walking Ballista until sufficient to kill the table
• Remove counters to kill the table

Notes: Ashnod's Altar produces mana at a 2-to-1 ratio meaning you only need to sacrifice every other Servo token made by Animation Module

Infinite Thopters

Cards required:

• Hangarback Walker
• Trading Post
• Paradox Engine
• Parallel Lives
• Ashnod's Altar

The process:

• Cast Hangarback Walker for at least 6 (X=3)
• Sacrifice Hangarback Walker to Ashnod's Altar, floating 2 mana and creating 6 Thopters
• Pay 1 and sacrifice a Thopter to Trading Post as a creature to return Hangarback Walker to hand
• Sacrifice 3 more Thopters to Ashnod's Altar to recast Hangarback Walker
• Paradox Engine untaps Trading Post
• Repeat until desired number of Thopters is achieved

Notes: This results in a net gain of +2 Thopters for each cycle.

Infinite Constructs

Cards Required:

• Oviya Pashiri, Sage Lifecrafter
• Gilded Lotus
• Sol Ring
• Mind Stone
• Paradox Engine
• Trading Post
• Parallel Lives
• Hangarback Walker

The process:

• Activate Oviya Pashiri, Sage Lifecrafter second ability to make 2 Construct tokens
• Cast Hangarback Walker for X=0 to trigger Paradox Engine
• Pay 1 and sacrifice a Construct to Trading Post to return Hangarback Walker to hand
• Repeat until you have an unstoppable Construct army

Notes: This combo also works for Oviya Pashiri, Sage Lifecrafter first ability and Servo tokens with the subtraction of Sol Ring. The mana rocks can be replaced with sufficient creatures + Cryptolith Rite. Hangarback Walker can be replaced with Walking Ballista.

Miscellaneous

The Machine is limited only by its masters desires. There is unspoken power waiting to be discovered and unleashed upon the masses. This operations manual merely contains knowledge the creators dared to impart on the world. Are you bold enough to unlock the secrets hidden within the Machine?

There are many more infinite combos that I haven't listed, and the above combos can have other side effects, such as dumping infinite energy into Aetherwind Basker to take out your final opponent, to casting your entire deck with Aetherworks Marvel, to drawing everyone out with Runed Servitor. The power is yours, may it corrupt the darkest corners of your soul.

Always happy to hear suggestions and ideas for fine tuning. Thanks for looking, if you like what you see please leave a +1
