Is there a combo between Crackdown Construct and Winding Constrictor? I think that if there is a triggered ability that is not a mana ability from a artifact or creature Crackdown Construct gets +1/+1, then gets another +1/+1 from winding constrictor which then in turn gives Crackdown Construct another +1/+1 and so on so that Crackdown Construct gets infinite attack and defense until the end of turn.
Winding Constrictor's ability isn't activated. Quote rulings on the card itself: "Activated abilities are written in the form “Cost: Effect.” Some keyword abilities, such as equip and crew, are activated abilities and will have colons in their reminder texts." Also Crackdown Construct's ability doesn't put +1/+1 counters on itself, so it doesn't work with Winding Constrictor even then.
Wandering Fumarole's creature ability though works with Crackdown Construct and is a well-known infinite combo. With Fling back in standard with Amonkhet I wouldn't be surprised if the combo made an impact.
If it hasn't been said already, mtgcombos already has a large database of combos. I've been part of it for years. While the card database isn't always refreshed instantaneously for new sets, we all know how to proxy lands for other cards, so the combos tend to stay fresh and current.
Not a game changing combo by any means but I always enjoy Mwonvuli Beast Tracker + Stampeding Wildebeests. You play the beast tracker to search for the wildebeests then you can bounce the beast tracker every turn to search for more creatures.
It's better to ask such questions in a seperate thread.
And yes, it is possible to achieve, though wether it is practical is for you to decide. The basic approach is to remove the card from the battlefield before your turn ends and have it reenter the battlefield before your turn begins. Or to somehow remove the abilities and regrant them with that same timing. You can achieve this with a combination of cards like Vedalken Mastermind + Oblivion Ring or Vedalken Mastermind + Song of the Dryads, by bouncing the Ring/Song during the end step of the last player before you in turn order and then replaying it during your turn on the Rites/Orrery. The Mastermind + Leyline of Anticipation/Vedalken Orrery works, too. In that case, you bounce the card itself during your turn and replay it with flash during the last end step before your turn.
Nomads en-Kor in a deck stuffed with creatures with the Enrage mechanic sich as bBellowing Aegisaur and Trapjaw Tyrant. Enchant the en-Kor with Pariah and you can trigger multiple enrage triggers at once.

I'm still a fan of: Island, Simian Spirit, Flash to Academy Rector to Omniscience to Enter the Infinite to Elite Arcanist with Death Wish and Concordant Crossroads and life gain to cast every spell you OWN IN YOUR COLLECTION.

I know, 5 colorless to create just 1 2/2 Zombie Token sounds likes too much work for just a 2/2, but it could be a mid-late game mana dump.
Thoughts?
