Hey guys, I'm looking to build a 5-color EDH deck full of all the good creature-based combos that win the game/produce an almost unlosable game state, along with tutoring engines. What combos can you guys suggest? Here's what I've got so far:
Well don't know about the others... but this one in particular doesn't quite work out in EDH do primarily to the Alternative Win Condition known as "General Damage" if it weren't for the fact that a person ONLY needs to deal 21 damage to you with their General to win, then this combo would be magnificient in that it could generate an infinite amount of life. However as it stands right now, the 21 general damage rule makes most life gain strategies in EDH sub par to say the least.
Personally my favorite combo with creatures would be a modified Food Chain Goblins deck for EDH....

i think it would be having all three in play, use kiki's ability copying lightning crafter onto kiki-jiki, then tap the new token and deal 3, use the prospector's ability and sac the token, kiki-jiki comes back untapped and then rinse and repeat.
Because infinite life in EDH doesn't always cut it, replace Essence Warden with Deathbringer Thoctar, oetc etc, something that instead of gaining life does damage,
For the creature based combos, all my favorite have been said. Kiki-Jiki and Pestermite/Ski Hussar i think is best, its 2 card, easy to assemble, and takes 1 combat step the instant you play Kiki Jiki to win. It has a lot of surprise, EOT Pestermite, untap, Kikijiki and win. Lighting Crafter/Kiki-jiki is cool, because it also uses kik-jiki, and i like how you just use a Goblin Recruiter to assemble the combo.
If you dip out of creatures, it gets much easier, there about a billion and one Intruder Alarm combos, countless with Aluren.
kiki and skirk are in play (or any removal card. food chain works too) play lightning crafter. you don't even have to let champion resolve, tap kiki and copy it. deal 3 with the copy, then remove it. kiki comes back into play untapped. repeat as neccesary.

There's always pickles too: Vesuvan Shapeshifter and Brine Elemental
Current EDH Decks:
G Multani, Maro-Sorcerer
B Xiahou Dun, the One-Eyed
GU Momir Vig, Simic Visionary
...
That would undoubtedly be quite broken....which is why Limited Resources is on the EDH banned list.
