    Sticky: Re: List of Compact Combos

    It sounds like it's just a quagmire, tbh. There's a big grey area intentionally left so, with the intent of making sure that combos which might not be deterministically interrupted just can't exist...

    Seems like this is the High Tide situation again, where you just play it out and don't mill yourself, right? It should be something like:

    - Discard to Mongrel
    - Gitrog triggers, you draw

    So IIUC, you're talking about a really specific kind of "going-off" with Gitrog, anything that would just involve the Gaea's Blessing effect. (this gives me pause since I recall old decks that took...

    I thought the problem with 4H was that it relied on the player guaranteeing a highly specific game state that may never occur.

    You can stack the triggers so that this works like you think it does. Evoke puts a sacrifice trigger on the stack when the creature enters the battlefield (in addition to any ETB triggers it would...

    @Grenzo - I know this is a bad bad card, but in my search for "stack the bottom of your library" tech I came across Stomping Slabs. I don't even care if Slabs never deals 7; it throws the top 7 to...

    There are at least two cards which call for a 3x multiplier.

    Burn at the Stake

    The only other one i can think of is Burn at the Stake which is 'three times the number of creatures' so it can't produce a negative. Interesting that 'doubling' has a distinction from 'multiplying'....
