---

---Try and use Rare (Mythic Rare) cards only; it can be from any set though (ie. Sol Ring in most sets is Uncommon, but From The Vault it is a Mythic Rare).

---This deck has many win-con’s (some listed below); I often find a new way to win, each time I play with this deck.

Combination(s)/Synergy:

Crucible of Worlds + Strip Mine = Individual Land removal

Crucible of Worlds + Windswept Hearth = Search for Forest/Plains

Rhys + Sword of Paruns = Untap Rhys to use abilities again

Illusionist's Bracer + Rhys = Double Tokens/Proliferate

Rings of Brighthearth + Rhys = Double Tokens/Proliferate

Greater Auramancy + Privileged Position = All your permanents have shroud

Sword of Paruns + Creature that adds 4 or more mana (ie. Elvish Archdruid or Priest of Titania; along with 3 Elf's on the battlefield) = Infinite Mana

**Nyxbloom Ancient + Grim Monolith = Infinite Colorless Mana

Isochron Scepter + (Instant) = Creature removal (Path to Exile and Swords to Plowshare), Control (Orim’s Chant and Silence), Artifact/Enchantment removal (Disenchant) or Artifact/Enchantment search (Enlightened Tutor) or Creature Protection (Heroic Intervention).

Note(s):

Try and get Scroll Rack out as soon as possible (helps with deck set up/mana).

Enlightened Tutor can search for Artifact or Enchantment

Defense of the Heart can be used, to bring out, some of the bigger creatures (ie. Vorinclex, Pathbreaker Ibex or Elsh Norn)

Bring out Bramble Sovereign as soon as possible, to begin, making tokens of non-token creatures.

Sword of Paruns + Creature that adds 4 or more mana Combo- Equip Sword of Paruns on Elvish Archdruid or Priest of Titania (w/3 other Elf's on the battlefield, to tap for 4 mana, with their ability). Repeatedly untap the creature, netting mana each time. Sink the mana into Kamahl, Fist of Krosa (Creature's get +3/+3 and Trample till end of turn) and overrun for the win or Walking Ballista.
