    What's the synergy here between the Painter combo and Didgeridoo? I just don't see it, since it doesn't even have artifact search aside from one Trinket Mage.

    It's a deck that can justify running 7 maindeck red blasts and 0 FoW, which is already going to steal big edges in the many blue matches.

    The two combos have no synergy though. I like the Relentless Neheb Stompy version better.

    The (small) synergy is that trinket mage can get both pieces.

    Me too. Didgeridoo decks in the event 4-1 or 3-2 currently.

    Which would make sense if Trinket was more than a 1-of, otherwise it's not really a reason to combine the combos. That's like saying the synergy is they both use cheap artifacts and instant activations, which frees up mana to cast Brainstorm.

    Arguably something like OmniTell would have a lot better synergy if you just want to cram in a 2nd combo deck.

    I'm interested to see how the Relentless decks do.

    I do think the combo makes more sense in a monoR sneak shell then a painter shell.

    Sneak Attack + fetchland turns Maraug into a 1-hit kill, which is a convenient combo. Or you can just Sneak out 2 Minotaurs and landfall once.

    Sneaky Neheb


    //Lands: 18
    4 Ancient Tomb
    4 City of Traitors
    3 Sandstone Needle
    7 Snow-Covered Mountain

    //Mana: 8
    4 Lotus Petal
    4 Simian Spirit Guide

    //Combo Engines: 8
    4 Didgeridoo
    4 Sneak Attack

    //Prison: 8
    4 Chalice of the Void
    4 Blood Sun

    //Minotaurs: 18
    4 Neheb, Dreadhorde Champion
    3 Neheb, the Eternal
    3 Sethron, Hurloon General
    4 Moraug, Fury of Akoum
    4 Boros Battleshaper


    Something like that seems like it could work as a starting shell. The mana and cards generated by Neheb makes it easier to Sneak out additional minotaurs for the extra combats to make it a 1-hit kill.

    Trinisphere might be better than chalice in your didgeridoo deck. Otherwise I like it.

    Illharg could also be a good fit here as a recurring sneak attack.
