Does Combat Celebrant + Reconnaissance Combo Works?

Asked by Enral 5 years ago

Combat Celebrant + Reconnaissance = Infinite combat steps?!

This is my interpretation of the combo...please let me know if I'm right or wrong:

1. Attack with Combat Celebrant and exert it for extra combat step

2. Before combat damage step, use Reconnaissance to untap it and remove it from combat

3. Repeat

Neotrup says... Accepted answer #1

The part that messes up is the "Repeat." Combat Celebrant's ability specifies "If Combat Celebrant hasn't been exerted this turn," which while it is untapped, it has been exerted. You may notice it's the only creature that has this clause, specifically to keep you from getting infinite combat steps so easily.
