Antonidas + Baleful Banker into next turn Galaxy. Rhen you only need the classic Exodia set up and you can pull off infinite damage without Quest. Sounds just as gimmicky however. At least we have a semi-decent way to pull the combo off even after drawing Antonidas.
Although you can use Raven Familiar to draw this fairly consistently.
Then again, if Maly Druid really becomes dominant, this might be the only thing to beat it. Especially considering
questless infinite was already a thing using the elemental that makes created cards cheaper and the card that copies minions in your hand as well as a Molten Reflection (I forgot card names, sorry). I think you can simplify things by adding a combo into the back end of a more tempo deck. I, for instance, will try to run this along with Vex Crow and the other mage legendary from this expansion. I already ran antonidas and sometimes the elementals that made created cards cheaper in the deck so swapping out aluneth for the new draw and one of my less effective cards for this as well as popping in the new one-cost spell somewhere will probably lead to a decent deck. I will need to make some adjustments but i think that it is a lot more consistent to rely less upon drawing the right cards at the right times, and instead having it as a backup that can be used at varying levels depending on when you draw cards.
That's right, mage was missing among the Malygos decks. after Druid, Shaman and Rogue. Well, not any more...
Do you hear combo? I hear combo. In fact, that's the only thing I've heard this expansion!
This is a great card and in comparison to druidstone, quite balanced. That said,
I hate it. You've already heard the combos, heck, you've already found the combos yourself. You've thought of every previous combos in existence and paired it with this card! I'm tired of the combo meta, let the tempo live for once.
Win Condition N1: Malygos + Alexstraza + Prince Taldaram or Faceless Manipulator + ??? = Profit
Win Condition N2: Archmage Antonidas [/card] + [card]Sorcerers Apprentice 2x + Alexstraza + ??? = Profit
You could even mix the two: Archmage Antonidas + Malygos + Alexstraza + ??? = Profit. It's a super flexible set of combos that react based on what you drew before this, and the only concern is if you have enough deck to put in all this combo + survivability. You don't even need to worry about getting the spell early if you bring Grand Archivist, although it essentially can ruin your existing combo if you draw especially bad and dont pick up any burn by turn 8.
Archmage Arugal will try to shine with this card, but you cannot control whether you draw 2 Malygos or not, especially with such a weak target it'll only give you one shot to draw a desired combo card. At the same time, Arugal might make it in simply because every draw is a good draw when it comes to tempo. You can either get double Sorcerers and make your combo easier, or get double Alex or Antonidas and make your board harder to clear.
This will be quite the deck in the upcoming meta, competing against Druid though it might not have all the damage in the world to break through their armor in the late game, and Druid has an equally "inconsistent" combo so it's going to be the race between Mage, Druid and don't forget Shaman.
This, plus Arcane Dynamo; paired up with Aluneth and of course, Book of Specters can make for some scary Tempo Zoo Mage. There's even Stargazer Luna!
It would need to wait until turn 8 to really keep going; but imagine 3 high-cost minions getting dropped every turn? You could even sneak Spiteful Smith+ping to destroy Aluneth once you're done drawing.
If you need to put something in your deck to destroy your own Aluneth, you're doing something wrong.
Not necessarily. Maybe because I am a fanboy ofAugmented Elekk and now think everyone can go infinite; I'm probably wrong but I want to believe!
Well if you are running Augmented Elekk you can use it to escape death by Aluneth forever. You basically start spamming it and Baleful Banker making sure to use Baleful Banker on itself and Augmented Elekk and then you have enough cards in your deck to avoid fatigue. Maybe you do kill the Aluneth but it takes a lot of work to do so, seeing how much durability it has and what it takes to destroy it (a minion that is bad surviving 2 turns or having 2 copies of it and making it survive 1 at least once.
Heck why not double Augmented Elekk and double Baleful Banker as your play every turn for the rest of the game, in fatigue it won't really matter that the cards are mediocre stat wise (5/6 for 5 or 10/12 for 10 is not bad but stats are worse late so you would prefer to have more stats if you could, maybe some turns you play some cheap minions you made.
Anyway all this thought is kinda silly, since you shoulda won already.
combo: Malygos + Antonidas = gg wp
I like how this artwork and name were both used for a custom card before.
Disguised Toast actually leaked the artwork and name on his Twitter, so there were a lot of attempts to guess what the card would be.
I thought this was in Orion's belt...
I can see a weird reverse Exodia you could pull off with this. If you can avoid drawing some of your key pieces (you can handle drawing Anton as long as you never pick up the Apprentices), you can play this, quickly cycle through the deck, and play out the combo.
Ohhh. So THAAAT's how you make Stargazer Luna really good.
Some of the minion based mage decks (Elemental, Murloc, maybe others?) just got a lot better looking all of a sudden.
Malygos Alex and Antonidas comes to mind. Alex to put opponent on 15 followed by malygos and Prince taldaram into fireball game over
This card can by discovered by Primordial Glyph CONFIRMED https://twitter.com/LegendaryFerret/status/1024196504263610368
Why would you even question it could? It's a mage spell. It being legendary instead of any other rarity doesn't change its interactions...
Because Quest is technically a spell too and you cant discover it.
Inb4 - new unreleased yet common mage card - "Galaxy Project - both players draw a spell that costs (5) or more"
Well .. I was expecting something to improve my big spell mage, I don't think this can fit really well in my deck, a ysera, alexstrasza, alanna, lich king, baron, sindragosa costing 1 is very nice .. but I don't know if will work.
