Give it a shot! Try and get over 1000 power! You can see my attempt here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BZFW_3Yn4BE

This was so much fun to do, I totally recommend you try it!


(Please fix the crashes problem)

    Probably another good choice is to use Arlinn with harness and the new spell energize convert 3 gems to green, energize 2.
    Together with other loop potential like animist awakening and similar.

    I don't own Arlin so can't try it myself but it should work

    Impressive. My biggest ever so far was a 150/150ish iroas champion. It was koths ultimate with a couple ramps while opponent had a triple hixus out. I held onto the demolish until I was actually in danger of losing just to see how big it would get. I think I also had in play a 90/80 something Tyrant and a Jori in the 60 range.
    I might try this. Looks like a good bit of fun. I'm down for an hour long match lol

    Be careful it doesn't crash, that's the thing that is most likely to make you lose.

    We've had someone do it! Someone on slack and in the Facebook group broke 1000! As far as I know he's the first! Congrats to Gregsta907!
  • I don't want to rain on anyone's parade but I broke 1000 power the day Panharmonicon came out. 2 startled awake and 1 Panharmonicon goes infinite (to the point you can't stop it even if you wanted to). I have no proof of this or timestamps or anything. I just wanted the public to know that 1000 power is easily achieved if you own these two cards. Anyways it was a long process where I just want to see if I could crash the game. it did crash around 1400ish. not sure on the actual number because it was hoursnon to the loop as I watched tv haha.

    That's cool! I knew that people had done it before, I just decided to make it a challenge, there are lots of loops and tricls to do it easily

    Just my 5 cents - it was possible much, much earlier than Kaladesh has been added to vault.
    Olivia + Wharf Infiltrator generated infinite loop creating 3/2 Eldrazi - (costed me two games in the event) I have to admit that after 600 or so I gave up and quit the game though.

    There are quite a few cool combos and loops for infinate power, I quite like trying to find these combos icon_razz.gif
  • I've successfully make an Electrostatic Pummler above of 1 000 000 power but at 1 000 000 the attack turn to 0 ^^

    New challenge. Can anyone glitch the game into giving something a negative damage? icon_e_wink.gif

    I strong suspect the answer is no given that they've already tried rolling the damage over the integer threshold but I'll still put this up.

    Am i missing something but i dont see how this goes infinite.

    I see the discard a creature, create eldrazi, discard a creature, create eldrazi...

    Most you could do would be 5 times. Where is the card draw?

    Love this idea! Especially if you back out gontis. I havent had any over 125 yet, but im still learning how to leverage some of the mechanics for loops.

    Id be curious how some of you are doing it without gontis. I am not following the olivia and wharf duo either. Thatd run you out of cards quickly. Nor the startled awake / panharmonicon since it loses shields. Maybe im missing something?

    It was bugged - Infiltrator had a condition that if you discard creature, draw a card (doesn't matter what caused discard). And the issue was that it actually didn't check the type of card discarded if the discard was just after draw. So there was discard on entry from Olivia trigger, Infiltrator see discard, trigger creation on eldrazi and make draw. Eldrazi token comes on board, triggers Olivia discard and the loop starts.

    It was. Fixed after two - three months after reported....

    Just uploading a video to show how this is achieved, I only did it to over a million as it gets boring after that anyway icon_razz.gif

    Will post in a bit.

    Wharf Infiltrator did not draw cards, the discard effects just infinitely triggered off of each other and never made it far enough to actually discard a card.

    I hit the 1,000 power challenge back in October when I posted this bug icon_lol.gif
