Deck Description

The goal is to assemble infinite mana for the Thrasios/Lab Maniac win. I designed this deck about three years ago, before Arcades was printed, and I strongly believe that a walls deck with a combo finish is stronger than beatdown. Here's how it's done...

Get Infinite Mana, draw deck with thrasios, win with lab man...

Phyrexian altar + Reveillark + Karmic Guide
Phyrexian altar + Sun Titan/Reveillark/Karmic Guide + Fiend Slayer

Axebane Guardian/Overgrown Battlements + 3 other defenders + umbral mantle
Axebane Guardian/Overgrown Battlements + 4 other defenders + staff of domination
Axebane Guardian/Overgrown Battlements + walls + equilibrium + paradox engine/intruder alarm

Land Untapping Creature + Karoo lands/Lotus Vale/Growing Rites of Itlimoc + mana reflection + umbral mantle/staff of domination

Argothian elder + Maze of Ith (during combat)

Land Untapping Creature + Forbidden Orchard + intruder alarm

Mana reflection + basalt monolith

-OR-

Draw your deck on hard-mode...

Equilibrium + wall of omens/wall of blossoms + paradox engine/intruder alarm + Shield sphere + dorks that tap for 3+ mana

-OR-

Create infinite kelp.

intruder alarm + wall of kelp + dorks that tap for 2+

-OR-

Cast Primal Surge

-OR-

....as a last resort

Switch to the beatdown plan with Arcades/Assault formation, Walls, and Sidar Kondo.


This deck has been a passion project since I first designed it. Please comment with suggestions on new combos to add that work with existing cards in the deck, but keep in mind that i'm avoiding expensive ($) cards as this is supposed to be a casual combo deck. The idea is to have a high enough density of combos that the absence of instant and sorcery tutors and counterspell protection is inconsequential.

Let me know what you think!
