Murderous Redcap

Creature — Goblin Assassin

When Murderous Redcap enters the battlefield, it deals damage equal to its power to target creature, player or planeswalker.

Persist (When this creature is put into the graveyard from the battlefield, if it had no -1/-1 counters on it, return it to the battlefield under its owner's control with a -1/-1 counter on it.)

Hi jakeelephant006,

Awesome looking Marchesa deck! An excellent card-advantage enabler in this deck could be Satoru, the Infiltrator as he synergizes very well with Marchesa's resurrection powers. Also, Mahadi, Emporium Master and Murderous Redcap have done a lot of heavy-lifting in my own version (which I still need to post here). If you want to go a bit more expensive, both The Ozolith (which ensures your +1/+1 counters aren't ever lost) and Agatha's Soul Cauldron (which allows for so much utility use it's ridiculous) can be absolute powerhouses in here.

Cheers!

Note to self: need to add Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit + Murderous Redcap + any sac outlet for infinite damage combo in this build.

Thinking about removing Harsh Mentor and Taurean Mauler, but am not 100% on where to cut.

In the recent update article to the bracket system, Gavin Verhey floated the idea of making hybrid mana symbols inclusive rather than excluding for the purpose of the 99. Regardless of how you feel about the change, what would the impact be?

Scryfall search for cards with hybrid mana

Ashiok, Dream Render gets to be annoying more often

Murderous Redcap gets to combo in even more decks

Dream Salvage: mono-black discard decks

Azor's Elocutors: mono-white pillow fort gets a wincon?

Sygg, River Cutthroat would be cool for a lot of political decks

Everlasting Torment & Kulrath Knight for Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons & Massacre Girl, Known Killer. For the Knight, also Toxrill, in case you want to be even more annoying.

Vexing Shusher expands its anti-countering services

Wort, the Raidmother might be neat for red+ spellslinger that uses tokens, like Magnus the Red

Rhys the Redeemed: more power to go-wide strategies (although Elfball haters might not be so enthustiatic)

The bonder cycle: Jubilant Skybonder, Cunning Nightbonder, Proud Wildbonder, and Sonorous Howlbonder ... also Alert Heedbonder, I guess.

Enchanted Evening, Gilder Bairn: more shenanigans abound

Godhead of Awe: might be neat for mono-W?

Worm Harvest: Titania is now the queen of worms

All companions become available to an expanded selection of color identites, with the exception of Jegantha (and Lutri)

In: Alesha, Who Laughs at Fate (a solid recursion option), Ali from Cairo (this is a ripcord to pull when you're looking at lethal, I've found myself in this position a few times and since this deck is very good at dialing up answers, I've slotted good 'ol Ali into the deck, Callous Bloodmage (this is a needed answer for decks that also rely on graveyard recursion), Carrion Feeder (I needed a creature based sac-oulet, which would be easier to tutor and would allow infinite combos), Dolmen Gate (chose over Legion's Initiative and Reconnaissance -both of which I love and are good alternatives -I'm testing out the gate to see which one I like more), Goblin Bombardment (free sac outlet, can go infinite), Pinnacle Monk  Flip (back into the main and out from the maybe; the one game I didn't have it I found the game stretching with lots of juicy targets accumulating in the graveyard and no way to get them back; I like options), Swamp (up to 5 total, better hitting land drops), Viscera Seer (another more optimal free sac-outlet).

Out: Aether Vial (I love this card and it's done good work mid-game, but I think there is better value), Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit (I decided to remove the infinite combo with Murderous Redcap for more resiliency and interaction potential), Baton of Morale (I really want to showcase the power of banding and think this could be a good way to direct damage to the creatures you want to die/recur, but am testing Dolmen Gate as an alternative way to do it), Cauldron of Souls (good for ETB recursion and wraths but I wanted to bring down the CMC, tough call), Claws of Gix (replaced for better options), Denethor, Ruling Steward (better options), Legion's Initiative (I love this card and it lets me get an extra ETB trigger, but am trying Dolmen Gate as an alternative), Murderous Redcap (took out the infinite damage trigger with Anafeza), Sword of Light and Shadow (I really like swords, but felt there are better options).

Based on some great feedback on Reddit and some of my own ideas, I made some edits (cards removed to sideboard so I can keep track).

In: Restoration Specialist, replaces Treasure Hunter and Auramancer.

In: Reveillark, replaces Pinnacle Monk  Flip

In: Panharmonicon, replaces Blade of Selves for ETB triggers

In: Felidar Guardian for infinite token combo with Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker. Replaces Athreos, God of Passage as it makes recursion conditional.

In: Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker. I wanted to test drive it.

In: Grand Abolisher (protection). Out: Boros Charmfoil (cry! I love this card, but it's not the right kind of protection for this deck).

In Murderous Redcap infinite damage win-con with Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit. Out: Figure of Destiny, feedback is that it is too slow, although to be fair it helped me win the first time I ran this deck.

Will also be updating Maybeboard based on feedback, some of the cards I don't have or haven't worked in yet.

Flarhoon13 on Alesha, Who Smiles at Death. Oops, I Did it Again

Alesha, Who Smiles at Death, Oops, I Did it Again won, Comboed off on my fifth attempt thru lots of disruption. Ian and Madison didn't team up, on their Ren and Stimpy, err, Rin and Seri, Inseparable and Oloro, Ageless Ascetic decks. Murderous Redcap entered at least 5 times and Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit about three before the combo finally stuck, with Karmic Guide out and then Renegade Reaper milled a Reveillark, starting a new combo that finally won the game.

I need a little more clarification on the objective of the deck. Are you wanting a deck with the longest list of combos, a deck with a large number of completely unique combos that you want to draw naturally, or a deck with a large number of completely unique combos and you will tutor the last piece? Each different style is going to require different combos.

Without any specific guidance on how you want to build the deck I am just going to list some of my favorites. I'll just list off cards, LMK if you need an explanation for any.
