As soon as I saw the commander, I fell in love with it. The idea is to ramp to your commander, get boots/darksteel on him, and punch yourself in the face as hard as you possibly can so you can establish your dominance over the other players.

This is the current deck I have in paper form, after many iterations and updates.

A few notable combos that are possible or being used:

• Blasting Station + Darien, King of Kjeldor + Healer of the Pride = Infinite life
• Anointed Procession + Blasting Station + Darien, King of Kjeldor = Infinite tokens
• Blasting Station + Cathars' Crusade + Darien, King of Kjeldor = Infinitely big creatures
• Karma + Royal Decree + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth = Self-damage and lifedrain (Swamps!)
• Mirror-Sigil Sergeant + Transguild Courier = Self-multiplying tokens (Blue permanent!)
• Extraplanar Lens + Snow-Covered Plains - Not a "combo," but this prevents Lens' symmetry.

Cards I used to have for funsies:

• The 3-card Urborg combo
• Oblation (For protecting my own things)
• Witch Hunter
• Dingus Staff
• Mirage Mirror

I would actually love to know more unconventional combos, especially if they involve mechanics from other colors.
