MTG Salvation

A guy around here runs Oona, Queen of the Fae with infinite mana combos in a tournament setting. We want to get better at playing against his deck, but he won't tell us everything that's in it.

We know he basically runs as much infinite mana combos as you can run while still playing cheap counterspells.

What are some infinite combos that you can think of that Oona has access to?

Here's what we have so far:

Cabal Coffers
Deserted Temple
Rings of Brighthearth

Capsize
High Tide
Great Whale
Palinchron

Grim Monolith
Basalt Monolith
Power Artifact

Time Sieve
Thopter Assembly

Mindslaver
Academy Ruins

Voltaic Construct
Artifact creature that taps for 3 or more mana (Dreamstone Hedron, Thran Dynamo, or Gilded Lotus made into a creature -- Power Artifact also works if you hit Voltaic Construct and use a creature that makes 2 mana such as Palladium Myr)

THANKS!

Basalt Monolith + Rings of Brighthearth is one of the easiest to assemble.

Or grim monolith and rings of brighthearth cost 3 mana to get the combo going rather than 2 that basalt monolith costs to do.

Right, we already have both of those (you can see Rings of Brighthearth and both Monoliths listed above).

Sorry about that. Don't know how I missed that. There's also

Magus of the coffers + umbral mantle

Various combinations of Necrotic Ooze, an untapper (Pili-Pala in graveyard, equipped Sword of the Paruns), and a creature that taps for a bit of mana in the graveyard (Palladium Myr, Apprentice Wizard, the aforementioned Magus of the Coffers). Possibilities become even wider if Necrotic Ooze becomes an artifact somehow (Memnarch, Mycosynth Lattice, et al), opening up the use of Soldevi Machinist/Vedalken Engineer and Grand Architect.

Voltaic Key can be used in the same manner as Deserted Temple with Rings of Brighthearth and a mana rock that taps for 4+.

Filigree Sages, Training Grounds, and Gilded Lotus/Khalni Gem.

I am pretty sure this isn't correct.

The reason Basalt works is because its only 3 to untap. Grim costs 4, plus you are paying 2 to copy it, giving you 6 mana and costing 6.

Grand Architect + Pili-Pala - Pay 1 blue to turn pili into a blue creature, then you can generate 1 mana of any color from there.

You can check out my Arcum deck list in my sig, has a list of infinite blue/artifact combo's if you are running blue that is.

Edit: I see you have infinite turns listed so:

Rings of the Brighthearth + Magosi, the Waterveil + Deserted Temple / Mind Over Matter = Infinite turns
Coretapper + Mimic Vat + Magistrate's Scepter = Infinite turns

Reiterate + Mana Geyser

Chainer + Palinchron/Whale + Miren/Diamond Valley

Also depending on the mana make up of the board, Coffers + palinchron works.

I've played Oona for almost 2 years my current infinite mana combos are:
Misc:
Pilli-Palla and Architect (I have knowledge exploit to highjack tooth and nails :))

Power Artifact:
Grim + power artifact
Basalt + power artifact

Rings:
Temple + Coffers + rings
Basalt + Rings

Also teferi is a MUST run for me.

Love my comment being deleted, even though it relevant.

Only one I've used is Umbral Mantle + Mana producing creature (typically an elf like Priest of Titania or Rofellos, Llanowar Emissary).

Maybe I'm wrong. I thought with grim monolith untapped and 3 mana open you can tap the monolith for 3 then plus pay 1 to untap it then copy the untap ability for the other 2 and tap again for 3 paying 2 to keep untapping it netting 1 mana each time. Is that incorrect? I would like to know the correct way to do it because I might be wrong.

Rings of Brighthearth copies for 2, not 1.

Tap Grim Monolith for 3. Float 3 off of lands or something else.
Pay 4, untap Grim Monolith. Pay 2, copy untap with Rings.

Net gain: 0.

Replacing Grim with Basalt means you only need to pay 3 to untap it, which results in a net gain of 1 mana.



Amulet of Vigor+Rings of Brigthearth+Magosi the Waterveil is infinite turns.
Magistrate Scepter+Contagion Engine+Rings of Brighthearth=Infinite Turns.
Beacon of Tomorrows+Mirror of Fate=Infinite Turns.
Rite of Replication+Time Warp+Eternal Witness=Infinite turns.


Turnabout/Rude Awakening/Early Harvest/Blinkmoth Infusion+Reiterate/Mischievous Quanar=Infinite mana.
Sliver Queen+Mana Echoes+Gemstone Array=Infinite mana of every color and infinite Slivers.
Gemstone Array+Rhystic Deluge+Gilder Bairn=Infinite mana.

If you actually read the first post, you'll see that your post bears no relevance to it whatsoever, and is not constructive given what the OP is asking.

working on some infinite mana combos myself for my Bosh deck (because Bosh + infinite mana = instant win), most of them are pretty easy to disrupt I think but I have yet to try it out.

clock of omens,dross scorpion, rings of brighearthand krark-clan ironworks features quite prominently.

Here's the google doc:

Just as an FYI to anyone wanting to try the combo with magosi, sadly it doesnt work, skip a turn to gain the counter, so if you untap it and use its extra turn they'll cancel out.

You use Rings on the activation that gives you an extra turn, netting you two turns at the cost of one. Then you play Magosi and untap it with any untap effect.

Corpse Dance + Palinchron/Great Whale + Ashnod's Altar

deadeye navigator + great whale/palinchron

any creature that taps for four or mana eg viridian joiner + umbral mantle/sword of the paruns

Karen silver golem + voltaic constrict + any mana rock that produces more than 2 mana

Sun Titan + Angelic Renewal +Ashnod's Altar or Phyrexian Altar

Found this one out by stumbling upon it in my Karador deck.
