Here, we'll have combos posted up. These are some things that you may want to consider, or even improve upon according to your fancy.

When posting these, explain why it is a good combo, what are the blatant weaknesses of the combo, and what format is it currently able to be played in.

Example:

Format: Legacy
Combo: Coat of Arms, Devoted Druid w/ Presence of Gond
How it Works: With these three cards on the field, you can make as many elf tokens as you wish with as much strength as you wish. This can be done only because of Coat of Arms, as you tap Devoted Druid for the token, she gets +1/+1, and due to her ability, she can give herself -1/-1 to untap her. Now you can tap her again and keep repeating this process. The tokens however, keep increasing in power for each new token coming into play.
Weaknesses: Anything that can destroy artifacts/enchantments and/or the destruction/removal of Devoted Druid.

Overall, this is a strong combo, but easily stopped.

There you have it, now show us what you guys got.

Format: Standard or Block

Cards: Living Tsunami, Halimar Depths, and Explorer's Scope. With Landfall creature (optional)

its simple, Living Tsunami makes you bounce a land, if you return Halimar Depths, then you can play it and stack your library. now the downside noramly is that your land locked now, but if you have Explorer's scope, you can stack a land on top of your deck, and then attack and get that land. [Optional] this works out really nicely if you have a landfall creature, such as Windrider Eel, because the Depths will trigger landfall, and then the Scope triggers landfall, before damage, and your Eell is an attacking 6/6 flying.

note: this is a fun combo that works better in Casual play. but if you can get this in a Draft it can be very devastating.

I was considering a blue/green deck with these cards in it once, minus the Explorer's Scope, and got stuck with the land lock thing. I can't believe I didn't think about the scope though, thanks.

ACTUALLY: thats not how Megrim works.
Megrim says "Whenever an opponent discards a card, Megrim deals 2 damage to that player"
Hedron Crab says "Landfall — Whenever a land enters the battlefield under your control, target player puts the top three cards of his or her library into his or her graveyard."

to discard a card, requires the card to be in your hand, if a card goes to the graveyard from your library, this is not a discard, and thus will not trigger any abilities that use the term Discard.

i'm afraid that this combo does not work, i'm sorry sad

its cool, there are so many rules, and so many words used, its hard to understand everything sometimes.

especially cause some other games do call putting a card from your library to your graveyard "discarding" its kinda stupid lol

yeah, found that out today... was kinda disappointed. I was thinking about how cruel it would be to mind funeral after megrim. I didn't embarass myself though, as I didn't modify the decks yet, but it would have been pretty cool.

Add elfish arch-druid and you have an never ending flow of mana!

I hope that deck has a quillspike in it as well, because quillspike can have unlimited power if you use it with devoted druid's tap/ untap effect
