Combos in the deck (1)
Detected from the decklist (Commander Spellbook): theoretically possible, see Spellbook for requirements. Whether a combo actually came together in games is shown above under “What the games show”.
- Axebane Guardian + High Alert → Infinite colored mana, Infinite mana creatures you control can produce, Infinite untap of creatures you control
Adjusted for the Forge AI
The list above is the best tested version, the way you would play it in real games. The Forge AI can't play a few cards – they were replaced in the tournament (the deck builder also rearranges other slots within the budget). The win rate comes from games with these replacements; the original cards themselves were not tested by the AI.
- Beast Within: AI can't play it
- Cyclonic Rift: adjusted to make room for another replacement
- Ghalta the Immovable: not in Forge
- Slaughter the Strong: AI can't play it
- Tower Defense: AI can't play it
- Expel the Interlopers: replacement
- Fog Bank: replacement
- Generous Gift: replacement
- Rhystic Study: replacement
- Wall of Mulch: replacement
