IS Marauding Blight-Priest and Exquisite Blood an infinite combo?

Asked by Merithras 4 years ago

I was making a life gain thing for spits and giggles, when i realized those 2 named cards were essentially an endless cycle. am i right? or just like.. not thinking through it all the way?

Yup, that's absolutely a loop. Exquisite Blood also works with Sanguine Bond , Vizkopa Guildmage , and anything else with a "opponent loses life" effect on a "whenever you gain life" trigger.

More complex stuff: Assuming no outside influence, like Disallow , the loop ends when state-based actions are checked and target/each opponent (depending on the effect) has 0 or less life. That player then loses. In a multiplayer game, you can switch a targeted effect to a different opponent when it triggers to drain everybody to 0.

Basically, if you get this combo out and you gain life or an opponent loses life, all of your opponents drop to 0 life and you win.
