Instant

Target noncreature artifact becomes an artifact creature with power and toughness each equal to its converted mana cost until end of turn. (It retains its abilities.)

JARTLEONHART on How to equip Helm of …

4 years ago

In order to have multiple copies of helm of the host, you need 3 pieces:

Helm of the Host : Simple. There is only 1 card that suit this role.

A "turn an artifact into creature" card. There are tons of these in different colors, but most are blue:

An "except is not legendary"/"maintain name" clone:

There are some cards that suits the role 2, but don't let you equip the clone. For example: March of the Machines

Conclussion: It's not easy to get it, but possible. It get's lot easier when you add a 4th role as Mirror Gallery letting any clone be of use.

Suns_Champion on Myr Warmachine

Hi! Neat idea! I really like it! +1!

I've got some good ideas for ya:

Zur the Enchanter will tutor for Arcane Adaptation. You could probably make him the commander for a guaranteed shot at Adaptation every game. I suggest you do that.

Here's my suggestion for an add on to the combo: Intruder Alarm. Now your combo is Near-infinite. IIIIIIIIF you make the Turbine a creature so it untaps when you grab a creature. This can be done with Ensoul Artifact(can be grabbed by Zur!), March of the Machines, Sydri, Galvanic Genius, Karn, Silver Golem, Toymaker, Tezzeret the Seeker (useful otherwise too), Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas, Karn's Touch, Xenic Poltergeist... you get the point. All the creatures would be Adapted Myr so they still help with the game plan. This side combo will make your main combo more powerful, allowing you to get all or your creatures rather than just one. Also you will additionally get infinite mana if you have a free mana-dork out. Something to consider.

Now regardless if you go with the side combo, you'll need a robust tutor package for consistency. Zur and a few others I've mentioned help, but here's some more: Enlightened Tutor, Diabolic Tutor, Razaketh's Rite, Demonic Collusion, Drift of Phantasms, Dimir Machinations, Mastermind's Acquisition, Brainspoil, Fabricate, and Beseech the Queen are all solid options.

Hope some of this helps! Let me know if you like or can't figure out the combo!

JonnyG21 on Memnarch's heist

7 years ago

With something like Argent Mutation, even though it replaces itself, it's still 3 mana for something memnarch does for 3, and if you're paying more, its probably worse than Control Magic.

Other useable cards from the gatherer link above posted by leviathan33 are: Ashnod's Transmogrant, Liquimetal Coating, Karn's Touch, Myr Landshaper, Neurok Transmuter, Thran Forge, Toymaker, and Transmogrifying Licid.

Please run Myr Landshaper; that sounds hilarious!

PookandPie on Oloro the out there

8 years ago

Oloro is in your title, but you used the plural of deck in your comment. Do you want more than just Oloro combos?

Also, what kind of combos are you looking for? You say degenerate, but that varies by playgroup. Most combos the average player considers degenerate are garbage, competitively, and typically the best 'combo' at tables with powerful decks and knowledgeable players is A Good Deck + Ad Nauseam or Doomsday, or something. So, because I don't know what you're looking for and you gave practically 0 information to make suggestions simple, here's every single infinite combo I can think of or find in Esper (and some of these aren't even registered as combos on the site, so... I found that interesting. Had to go back and separate those ones card by card):

And after this, I'm out. I'm going to go back to playing Fire Emblem: Fates. Fwiw, I hope this helps, and I just zoned out in a phone call with a person I didn't want to speak to for about 20 minutes while formatting this, lol.

K34 on I need to turn artifacts …

8 years ago

@Crayfish, it's part of my infinite mana combinations. I'm gonna focus on turning my mana rocks into creatures.

@greyninja & MogMan696, good one. Luckily I think I have one of those somewhere.

@Dumeeperninja, I like it, I'm going to try it out.

@TheDevicer, what do you mean? I never really thought of Oona decks as a weak archetype. At any rate, I'll be running lots of counters, and they won't all be on the field together.

@shuflw, Karn's Touch and Xenic Poltergeist are some great ideas, I'll try them out.
