Wurmcoil Combo Suggestions
Deck Help forum
Posted on March 27, 2015, 5:42 p.m. by Go_Fish
I have a friend who is just recently getting out of Magic, and sold me this deck for $30. Do you guys have any suggestions or ideas as to what I should do with it or add/subtract from it? Thanks in advance!

Wow, good deal for $30 haahaaha.
In all seriousness, have you considered playing Tron? The reality is you shouldn't need to infinitely recur Wurmcoil Engine in order to win. Once you have one out, they're incredibly hard to deal with and you can just attack them.
If you're set on keeping the recursion theme, I'd suggest Krark-Clan Ironworks.

I agree. You either need a second sac outlet, or a way to untap Trading post to both kill and recur Wurmcoil in the same turn.

yeah, that would work. Krark-Clan Ironworks to sac wurmcoil and add two mana. Use one to tap Trading Post to hand and recast wurmcoil (you can sac either or both of the tokens to recast wurmcoil). repeat. The combo can go infinite you use a card like Cathodion or Myr Moonvessel. You can even get infinite mana and 1/1 tokens by using Myr Sire. With either giving them haste, or having Purphoros, God of the Forge, Impact Tremors, or Goblin Bombardment you can win the turn you go off.

30 dollars??? Just the presence of three alt wurmcoils should make that at least 60! You got a seriously nice deal my friend.

In addition to the above suggestions (I'm partial to the addition of Krark-Clan Ironworks and Myr Moonvessel), try turning Crater's Claws into Banefire or Comet Storm and Cancel into Dissolve or Mana Leak. Also your Arc Lightnings could easily become Electrolyzes or Lightning Bolt, and Encrust/Claustrophobia should probably turn into more countermagic/removal.

Thanks for the responses, guys!
Sylvannos, I actually do have a separate Tron deck already.
I do think I'd like to do the recursion thing with this one, this deck is really going to be only to play casually, so I'm looking for some more funny shenanigans rather than super competitive.

No problem. Thank you actually. I now really want to build a version of this deck. Thank you for the idea.

It sounds really neat, doesn't it? I heard "Wurmcoil Forever" and "$30" and I was sold.

Nyx all but the coils and build tron? Even budget tron?

Heh, Ryotechni, you're the second person to suggest I play Tron. I've already got a pretty nice mono blue From deck, but I appreciate the input none the less.
