I'm having it hard to figure out how do your Animate Dead + Lion's Eye Diamond combos work, can you explain them? I mean the Sidisi, Undead Vizier + Lion's Eye Diamond + Deadeye Navigator + Animate Dead and the Muldrotha, the Gravetide + Phantasmal Image + Lion's Eye Diamond + Animate Dead combos.

KANIGAMI Sure thing they’re a little hard to follow

For the first combo: - play Muldrotha - play Lion's Eye Diamond and crack it for Blue. - play Phantasmal Image from the grave yard having it come in as a copy of Muldrotha. As it enters the battlefield you have to sacrifice one off the Muldrotha’s because Of the legendary rule.Now you are left with just the clone and are able to play a new set of permanents from your graveyard. - play Lion's Eye Diamond and crack it for Black. - play Animate Dead from the graveyard targeting Muldrotha which returns her to the battlefield and the legendary rule makes you sacrifice again. This time we’re going to sacrifice the clone so we get to play a new set of permanents again. - repeat the steps over and over allowing for infinite mana of all three colors and infinite storm.

Combo 2: - Have Muldrotha in play - play Lion's Eye Diamond and crack it for Blue. - play Deadeye Navigator having it soulpair with Muldrotha. - spend one blue and a colorless to blink Muldrotha allowing for the new instance of Muldrotha to play a new set of permanents. - play Lion's Eye Diamond and crack it for Blue and use two to blink Muldrotha. Eventually you will have made infinite blue mana allowing you to sacrifice the diamond for any other color and thus infinite mana of those colors too.

If you have any more questions about the combos feel free to ask them!

Oh, I get it. You would then make Sidisi, Undead Vizier exploit herself over and over. Sounds really fun, I would try it if only Lion's Eye Diamond wasn't so expensive.

Thanks for the explanation!

KANIGAMI yeah I managed to get one from one of my dads friends who didn’t know how good it was.

If you would like to do something similar you could run Lotus Petal in place of the diamond and run Paradox Engine and a Sol Ring to produce infinite colorless mana and infinite storm.

Sounds like a good alternative, I already have a Paradox Engine , I'll maybe try it in the future, though it feels like I'd need to build the deck around it.

KANIGAMI I forgot to mention if you add any mana dork in with that last combo you have the exact same results as lions eye diamond. Specifically if you add a Birds of Paradise so you can have infinite mana of any color. That's just my advice if you want the results of my combo without having to own the card.

Have you considered running Unfulfilled Desires?

Bernout Thank you for the recommendation! Unfulfilled Desires looks like a really fun card and I think ill put some consideration into the card, however I need to try and find a card to remove from the deck in place of it. Thank you again for the comment and if you can think of a card that I could remove in place of it please let me know.
