[Standard] Infinite Flying Zombies Combo

[Mister.Ri]

Infinite Flying Zombies Combo

A fun and crazy 4-card combo piece that can give us infinite flying zombies as early as turn 5!

Basically with Desecrated Tomb and Arcane Adaptation (naming zombies) on the battlefield, we can cast Liliana, Untouched by Death and ultimate her right away to cast zombies from the graveyard. With Chamber Sentry either in graveyard or in your hand, we can cast it for X=0, and when it dies, we cast it again infinite times as Chamber Sentry is now a zombie. This will trigger Desecrated Tomb, creating a 1/1 flying Bat token who is also a zombie, therefore making infinite flying zombies!

For Arcane Adaptation, if we have multiple copies, we can cast it naming Demon so that we can also have an alternate win condition in Liliana's Contract. Arcane Adaptation naming Skeletons is another option with Death Baron on the battlefield.

Due to Liliana's Contract and Desecrated Tomb needing lots of creatures, we fill up the rest of our deck with utility creatures.
Reassembling Skeleton is the best card with Desecrated Tomb.
Graveyard Marshal and Memorial to Folly can also trigger Desecrated Tomb.
Dusk Legion Zealot and Midnight Reaper helps us draw into our key pieces.
Ravenous Chupacabra, Hostage Taker and Plaguecrafter are our deck's removal.
Even Chamber Sentry can be utilised as X=2 to kill off any small toughness creature 2 or less.

I know that this deck is hard to be made competitive as we have 2x playsets of 3-mana do nothing cards, but otherwise Infinite Flying Zombies is fun especially when we combo off!

Any suggestions / comments always welcome!

Nice combo ! And since you have some artifacts, why not adding one or two more with Crucible of Words and play some Phylactery Lich ?

Feels more like you should be playing 4 opt, and 4 anticipate to find the combo. Or maybe Final Parting and Mastermind's Acquisition. Mastermind's acquisition lets you have 1 copy of each combo card in your SB so you can grab what you need when you need it while final parting lets you get a missing piece AND put Chamber sentry right into your GY so it may be another good option.

Your deck was selected as our deckstats.net deck of the week this week. Congratulations!

I always liked infinite combos in standard. Nice!

[Finnish Flash]

How about adding Bloodcrazed Paladin? He can be flashed in or brought back with Liliana as an infinite/infinite. This way with blue you only need to protect an Arcane Adaptation in play and can pull the combo off with 6 mana in one turn.

What is the combo

[Mister.Ri]

wow. The response is amazing. Thank you guys.

@erinoxe if we were to go to the artifact theme, perhaps Karn, Scion of Urza might be much better, not only to dig for combo pieces but also can beat down with the constructs.
@patshandofdoom Final Parting is great. Thank you for the suggestion. Find my missing piece, lets me cut one more Chamber Sentry as well
@Nils thank you for the selection!
@Finnish Flash not too sure about bloodcrazed paladin as not sure how the combo works. will need you to help explain it further.

I would be happy to see a Narcomoeba in this deck as dredging is unused in standard. You can mill your deck using Diligent Excavator for example and make a use of Necrotic Wound (need lots of historic card for that so it's hardly manageable). Search for Ascantza can be good to even if it puts only one card in the graveyard, but it skims through your deck so it's really powerful, as what you're looking for is that X creature in the graveyard and all other pieces of the combo in hand. Milling your deck is hard to create an effective combo deck in standard, but Stitcher's Supplier does mill a lot. I would also suggest putting a Poison-Tip Archer in any deck creating an infinity of creature (even without attacking you can win, even just by poking), it can make the difference from a Settle The Wreckage for example.
In fact I think that deck lacks drawing, because you mostly win with a combo. Arguel's Blood fast main would be a no go because you can be against aggro, but Search for Ascantza is really neat here. Karn could be good but again if you can't benefit from the X/X token with artifacts it's just an expensive drawing machine that may split your combo into exile... What would be good is surveil so I would add the surveil musts like Discovery and Thought Erasure. Nightveil Sprite maybe ? I think it's too weak to surveil 1 each turn but you can test it out. And Doom Whisperer might be a little too expensive (I would recommend one or two main though). Price of Fame sided would be great too as it surveils. Vraska's Contempt is also great sided (even though I know this deck runs beasts to kill, an instant killing even PW is something else).
Anyway this deck could be really cool if well constructed and even win against lots of other decks that lacks control (red, BG stompy, G stompy, angels). I would like to see it in play as I am looking for infinite combos too.

It's Search for Azcanta and Discovery // Dispersal *
