Activate AI discarding the LED and find another LED when it resolves.ģ. Activate AI discarding the artifact, find LED when it resolves.Ģ. I'd suggest Mentor again, but this isn't like breach where they're going to cut their removal.Įngineered Explosives might be worth looking at since It's fetchable and we can make 5 colors with moxen (or 3 normally).Ĭan you walk me through how this works? I'm having trouble visualizing this.Suppose that you have Conspiracy Theorist and Artificer's Intuition in Play, an artifact in hand, and LEDs and the Elixir in the library, and UUU free.ġ. I just don't like the idea of having to rely on echo finding me the right cards if I'm committing my fragile combo to the board. Or even something that could tutor up Burning Wish off Artificer's. I think we need a second wincon other than relying on our 2/2 sticking on board, preferably something fetchable with Artificer's Intuition, but I couldn't find anything that seemed any thing that fit the bill. With Conspiracy Theorist only letting you exile 1 card per discard instance, do we exile burning wish off LED to go up on mana or how do we fetch the tendrils for the storm kill? Also there's kinda a nombo between LED and Artificer's Intuition since we need to empty the hand before we can enter the pay-for-ability step, so we can only ever end the chain with LED. I don't know if that's enough to be viable over a grindier midrange version with Sevinne and Emry. This version tries to do sort of the same thing with Theorist+Artificer (convert 0 cmc artifacts into storm kill), but has less demanding mana and lets you play Jeskai colors for Silence effects (which protects from a wider range of hate on the combo turn than Veil can). That shell was quite good, the most limiting part being that Song cost too much mana and demanded RUG colors (Veil does not protect it from REB, which was everywhere in the Oko meta). Before I was using Song of Creation as the 2nd engine to Echo/Wish. I've been brewing with versions of Echo storm for a while now. There's a lot of synergy to make up for the fragility of A+B. Grid and Silence both protect the Echo storm lines well. Intuition converts bad artifacts into LED (often the bottleneck because Wish finds Echo). A and B each make those other lines better. The upside of this version is the deck can storm kill as early as turn 1 without either A or B. I didn't have enough room to make that other shell good and still keep Emry. Instead I went for the Gamble + LED + Echo + Wish shell, which is often enough to storm kill on its own without either Theorist or Intuition. Maybe in a painter lists, where you can exploit Intuition way more?Īnother possibility, for more consistency and midrange, could be play Emry and 2-3 Sevinne reclamation, amazing with led and can recur both pieces of the combo (or grid), t3feri too.I started with 3 Emry and cut it. I see many problems (sadly, bc the engine si really cool), mainly the fragility as you mentioned on top on being a a+b with not many upside value. But the combo engines are also very light on mana, which makes them easier to protect using proactive shields like Orim's Chant and Defense Grid. The combo engines are fragile to instant speed interaction. Without Theorist, Artificer's fair mode still lets you convert Baubles into LEDs or SB pieces. Theorist makes each card even better even without the Artificer combo. LED+Gamble already works well in an Echo of Eons storm shell. It turns Gamble into Demonic Tutor, letting you get any card in your deck for 1 mana without any drawback of losing the card. It also turns Lion's Eye Diamond into Black Lotus, letting you use the mana to cast a card in hand. Conspiracy Theorist combos with Artificer's Intuition to let you chain through a large number of Lotus Petal, Mox Opal, Chrome Mox and Lion's Eye Diamond to build storm and then go off using LED mana.
