Welcome

We have creature who are actually eggs such as Rukh Egg , creatures with changeling that count as eggs, creatures who become whatever creature type we want such as Adaptive Automaton , creature that fetch eggs from library and graveyard Gerrard, Weatherlight Hero Protean Hulk Karmic Guide and abilities that give non-eggs changeling such as Mirror Entity and Runed Stalactite .

When this deck goes off it:

• Puts all creatures from your hand, graveyard, and library onto the battlefield.

• Gains Infinite Life

• Puts infinite tokens into play.

• Deals Infinite Damage to all opponents.

• Does whatever the particular sac outlet does (infinite mana, mill entire library, you and creatures immune to damage, Infinite Power to Atla etc...)

We accomplish all these things by having our commander Atla Palani, Nest Tender out with a sac outlet and an egg creature. We sac our egg creature for another egg creature and another etc until we run into either Protean Hulk or Karmic Guide , and a changeling with "Champion a creature" ability. When we get there, we will champion Karmic Guide and return the champion to play infinitely, causing infinite Atla Palani, Nest Tender triggers and killing with card:Purphorous, God of the Forge.

This usually happens turn 4 or 5.

**Dealing with Non-Egg Creatures

There are two Non-egg creatures in our deck that could potentially derail our combo but are definitely necessary.

Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre is there to shuffle your gy back into your library to sustain the combo into infinite.

card:Purphorous, God of the Forge is there so we win immediately upon going off. Without him, we would have to wait until our next combat (we don't have haste) to swing with infinite creatures.

As necessary as these two creatures are, if we Atla into them at the wrong time, our combo will end due to them not being eggs and not triggering Atla when they get sacced.

Here are a few ways you can prevent this from happening - Go off with more than one egg out. There are a lot of eggs in here for a reason!

• Go off with two mana available + Lightning Greaves or Swiftfoot Boots on Atla so you can pop out an egg token if you get unlucky

• Run into Irregular Cohort to get another egg.

• Run into Gerrard, Weatherlight Hero to pull out your entire graveyard (RIP Gerrard)

• Use Runed Stalactite or Mirror Entity to make either ulamog, or non-egg tokens eggs.

-Combo off by increasing atla's toughness by at least 1 (lots of lands and equipment do this) and putting infinite 0 cost activations of Mirror Entity on the stack, simultaneously killing all of your other creature and turning them into eggs (except Purphorous, who won't be a creature at the time)

-Tutor a non-egg creature into your hand so you don't run into it. You can get it back out by using card:Sumoner's Egg.

-Tutor Protean Hulk to the top of your library.

As you can see the odds are against the combo failing.

Infinite Life

Infinite Life is gained simply by Webweaver Changeling entering the battlefield infinitely.

Infinite Creatures

Infinite Creatures are gotten by card:ruhk egg, Dragon Egg and Roc Egg dying infinite times.

Protecting Atla

Atla is key to our strategy, so we have both equipment boots, and possibly championing her until you want to go off. We also have enough ramp to recast her a couple times and Command Beacon .

Removal

There are a lot of cards that can rain on our parade here so we have a decent suite of permanent removal. You should particularly aim for creature-hate cards and graveyard-hate cards

Well, what do you think? I need help to make this competitive. It would be nice to reliably go off on turn 3 instead of 4. Please post comments and suggestions below and be sure to upvote if you like it!
