Combos in the deck (2)

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”.

  • Aggravated Assault + … → Near-infinite colored mana, Near-infinite combat damage, Near-infinite Treasure tokens
    3 versions, each with one of: Ancient Copper Dragon · Old Gnawbone · Savage Ventmaw
  • Ganax, Astral Hunter + Aggravated Assault + Utvara Hellkite → Infinite artifact ETB, Infinite artifact LTB, Infinite artifact sacrifice triggers

Commander Spellbook lists 4 entries because every version counts separately (for example with a different sacrifice outlet). Here each combo counts once.

Show all 4 entries
  • Ancient Copper Dragon + Aggravated Assault → Near-infinite colored mana, Near-infinite combat damage, Near-infinite Treasure tokens
  • Aggravated Assault + Old Gnawbone → Infinite artifact ETB, Infinite artifact LTB, Infinite artifact sacrifice triggers
  • Savage Ventmaw + Aggravated Assault → Infinite combat damage, Infinite combat phases, Infinite green mana
  • Ganax, Astral Hunter + Aggravated Assault + Utvara Hellkite → Infinite artifact ETB, Infinite artifact LTB, Infinite artifact sacrifice triggers

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.

In the list (original cards)
  • Beast Within: AI can't play it
  • Cyclonic Rift: adjusted to make room for another replacement
  • Flooded Grove: AI can't play it
  • Mossfire Valley: AI can't play it
Played instead in the tournament
  • Balefire Dragon: replacement
  • Kessig Wolf Run: replacement
  • Spit Flame: replacement
  • Wooded Foothills: replacement

What the program has learned

Each tournament the deck tests one card. A verdict needs at least 40 games with and without the card. Since the deck is rebuilt every tournament with current prices and data, tested cards can drop out again later.

No swap has enough games for a verdict yet.

1 more tested card is still collecting games.
