Strionic Resonator and Untapers

Deck Help forum

I just builded up to Kozilek, Butcher of Truth deck, went to a local shop and played my deck, it was a lot of fun, 3/4 wins in a non-competitive environment, and I noticed that, I have more combos than I thougth

The cards are:

So I can use ie:

I want to make sure if am i right with the stack, because I used to play a Brago, King Eternal deck and the combo with Strionic Resonator was a common thing in my gameplay.

Interaction:

  1. On opponent turn untap every artifact with Unwinding Clock
  2. Tap every mana rock to produce 3+ C mana
  3. Pay 2, tap Strionic Resonator to copy Unwinding Clock triggered ability
  4. Let the Unwinding Clock resolves untaping every artifact
  5. Repeat 2, 3 and 4 to go infinite

Or

  1. Cast any spell produce 3+ C mana to the pool after paying the spell
  2. Untap everything but lands with Paradox Engine
  3. Pay 2, tap Strionic Resonator to Copy Paradox Engine triggered ability
  4. Let the Paradox Engine Resolves untaping everything but lands
  5. Repeat 2, 3 and 4 to go infinite

Are this combos correct?, because if they are... omg!

Unfortunately, Unwinding Clock isn't a triggered ability, it doesn't go on the stack. The resonator can't copy it.

Paradox Engine is a triggered ability, so it works.

Sands of Time is a triggered ability as well, but it takes a little more work to go infinite.

Thank you!

I'm interested to know more about Sands of Time it looks like you can make some things like Mana Vault, Grim Monolith and Basalt Monolith get a lot of value, but I can see there much more than that.
