Win with Spirit Vampire Myr Sliver Zombie Wizard Knight Allies!

What is Tribal Tribal?

1. Zur the Enchanter attacks to find Arcane Adaptation, Copy Enchantment, and Estrid's Invocation.

2. Xenograft, Clever Impersonator, and Hivestone can give more creature types. Ashes of the Fallen choosing Knight can enable Haakon to recur other creatures from the graveyard. Mirror Entity's ability gives all the creature types. Creatures then synergize with one another thanks to their tribal synergies. Artificial Evolution can be used to change the creature type synergy on one permanent.

3. Priority of choices for Arcane Adaptation and copies, subject to variation depending on drawn cards: Zombie, Spirit, Myr, Knight, Wizard, Ally, Vampire, Sliver.

4. Make an army of Spirit Vampire Myr Sliver Zombie Wizard Knight Allies.

5. Draw lots of cards with Azami, Lady of Scrolls, Sea Gate Loremaster, Graveborn Muse, or Distant Melody.

6. Win by combo or combat.

Tribal Combos

Bloodline Keeper + Intruder Alarm makes infinite Vampires. Intruder Alarm can also make infinite Wizards using Stonybrook Schoolmaster with Azami, Lady of Scrolls or Galecaster Colossus to tap him, and infinite Myr using Myr Turbine with Enchanted Evening and Opalescence or Starfield of Nyx to untap the Turbine. Myr Turbine can then put every creature from the library into play with Artificial Evolution to turn the Myr Turbine into a Zombie Turbine or Spirit Turbine or Knight Turbine depending on what was already chosen by Arcane Adaptation.

Haakon, Stromgald Scourge + Josu Vess, Lich Knight can make infinite menacing Zombie Knights by sacrificing Josu and 4 tokens with Basal Sliver's ability for mana, using Mirror Entity, Hivestone, Arcane Adaptation, or Xenograft to make the Zombie Knights into Slivers.

Ghoulcaller Gisa can make infinite Zombies by sacrificing Zombies for mana with Basal Sliver, untapping Gisa with Intruder Alarm or Faces of the Past, and Mirror Entity's ability or Arcane Adaptation choosing Wizard or Zombie.

Ajani's Chosen + Enchanted Evening makes infinite tokens, but the game ends in a draw unless some other effect like Hagra Diabolist or Kalastria Healer kills the other players first, or Ajani's Chosen or Enchanted Evening are sacrificed or destroyed e.g. with Necrotic Sliver.

Peer Pressure + Standardize takes over everyone else's army.

Enchanted Evening + Opalescence kills only opponents' lands with lords and anthems in play. Patron of the Vein with Mephidross Vampire also turns the surviving lands into really powerful Vampires.

Rooftop Storm becomes Omniscience for creatures with Arcane Adaptation choosing Zombie.

Ashes of the Fallen + Haakon, Stromgald Scourge choosing Knight can play any creature from the graveyard.

1. Iname, Death Aspect puts Haakon, Stromgald Scourge and all other creatures from the library into the graveyard so they can be played with Arcane Adaptation choosing Spirit and Copy Enchantment or Ashes of the Fallen choosing Knight.

2. Clever Impersonator can be played from the grave to become the third Arcane Adaptation choosing Zombie, making all the other creatures in the grave free with Rooftop Storm.

3. Mirror Entity's ability will then grant all other creature types particularly Wizard, Ally, and Sliver.

4. Basal Sliver allows other creatures to be sacrificed repeatedly for infinite and triggers.

5. Repeatedly sacrifice and play Hagra Diabolist or another Ally to kill opponents.

Other Tribes and Cards to Consider

Merfolk can go infinite with Wanderwine Prophets for extra turns, Lullmage Mentor for protection, and Stonybrook Schoolmaster and Deeproot Waters to make more Merfolk.

Illusions would give infinite mana via Palinchron and Phantasmal Image, Ixidron to neutralize threats, Lord of the Unreal for protection, Aura Thief to capitalize on Enchanted Evening, and Dismiss into Dream to set up Peer Pressure.

Many of the creatures are Soldiers, so Preeminent Captain and Knight-Captain of Eos are good payoffs. Mirror-Sigil Sergeant can make an exponential number of Soldiers.

Cats can work with Ajani's Chosen and Brimaz, King of Oreskos to make lots of cats, and Zur can tutor Quest for the Holy Relic to enable Raksha Golden Cub's buff.

Corpse Harvester can tutor any creature.

Myr Galvanizer can untap all other creatures.
