Background

I am bored. We're asked to stay at home which makes playing Paper Magic very difficult. But Ikoria brought us some new cards to toy around with, namely companions. My idea is: If we have a commander and a companion - do we need anything else to win? I tried to come up with a combo using Jegantha, the Wellspring + Sisay, Weatherlight Captain . The deck is probably not meant to be played againt opponents - which is a non-issue right now! The combo can be as convoluted as desired. I see it as a deck building experience. Also good for some gold fishing. No interaction needed, just for a game of good 'ol solitaire.

I know it's not a deck yet! That's why I need your help. Besides the described win combo, I basically only added acceleration. I am not sure I want it to be faster - but I want it to be cooler! I want another winning combo or sweet synergies.

Main idea

Use Jegantha's mana to put legendaries into play with Sisay. Those legends need to untap Jegantha to keep the chain rolling.

Kick off

Goal: Grow Sisay to power 7 (or more) so you can tutor up anything with CMC and below and acquire enough mana to search for TWO legendaries which win you the game. Sisay starts with power 4 due to Jegantha having two colors. Start off getting these cards into play:

  1. Derevi, Empyrial Tactician -> Sisay is 6/6.
  2. Kiora, Master of the Depths (float from land)
  3. Aminatou, the Fateshifter (blink Kiora, use Kiora on Jegantha & Land, float another ) -> Sisay is 7/7.
  4. Samut, Voice of Dissent (use one of the leftover to untap Jegantha)
  5. Gideon, Martial Paragon (untap all, use remaining to untap Jegantha AGAIN, end up having )

The win

Find any two legendaries that win you the game. They might need to interact with what you already have on the board. You may as well go on chaining legendaries first if necessary for your combo. All our creatures are hasty since we have Samut in play.

  1. The Chain Veil
  2. Gaea's Cradle / Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx / Xenagos, the Reveler

Both lands should be able to provide you with the necessary to activate The Chain Veil. Gaea's Cradle should already tap for since you have four creatures on the board. Xenagos also makes 4. For Nykthos, you first might need to chain some more to get to six devotion and have for the first activation. You could use Kiora, Behemoth Beckoner and Sarkhan Vol to get your green up to six. For repeatedly untapping The Chain Veil, you'll need to tutor up Teferi, Timebender or Ral Zarek first. When the combo is established, we can grow creatures infinitely large with Gideon, Martial Paragon, make infinite mana with Kiora, Master of the Depths, tutor up all the legendaries with Sisay, and take all the turns with Teferi, Timebender and so forth.

I've recently been informed that this is a possible chain as well:

  1. Derevi, Empyrial Tactician -> Sisay is 6/6.
  2. Kiora, Master of the Depths (float // step optional if you can get {W} elsewhere or don't need it)
  3. Samut, Voice of Dissent (use to untap // step optional if you have another haste enabler in play)
  4. Saheeli Rai (copy Derevi, untapping Jegantha, letting copy die to legend rule)
  5. Prime Speaker Vannifar (turn Derevi into Felidar Guardian, blink Saheeli)

=> now you're going infinite with Felidar Guardian and Saheeli Rai

Step 2 is optional if you already have , steps 2 & 3 are optional if you have a haste enabler (Lightning Greaves // Concordant Crossroads // Mass Hysteria) in play. This version is much more streamlined than the first Version.

More combos highly appreciated.
