Trying to make a Turn 2 death by Infection combo. Is there any way to make this Type 2/Standard (ie., drop the Black Lotus, Lotus Petal and Moxes )? Maybe Birds of Paradise and some other mana rampage.

I can't think of anyway to get a turn 2 infect win in standard, though I can think of two turn 3 options

1)  kiln fiend turn 2, strobe and tainted strike turn 3-ftw

2) t1-forest birds, turn 2 mountain, turn 3-another land, pyrhic, arc runner, strobe, tainted strike

 

EDIT:  Just realized a turn two infect win

T1: Forest Birds

T2:  mountain, pyretic ritual, goblin guide, bull rush, strobe, tainted strike

Gericault5,

Thanks for the information! It's really appreciated. I'm trying to make a Type 2/Standard deck for this weeks' local FNM that's competitive in my meta. Unfortunately I don't own any Goblin Guides yet. Thinking of buying 2 of the new Mirrodin Besieged event decks to get them unless the price drops a little on a playset.

-Jim

Go to Magic Cards Info website (http://magiccards.info/), search on card name, click on the card name hyperlink, then copy the picture (CTRL C) from that website and past it (CTRL V) onto this website in your text field when posting. Sometimes you may have to hit the "Create Link" button above instead after copying the URL (for the specific card) from the Magic Card Info website and paste it into the appropriate field in the pop up box.

It takes a little trial and error to get it right. Good luck!

-Jim

Got all the pieces and parts for the Type 2/Standard version of this combo except for the playset of Goblin Guides. May have to trade for them @FNM this week.

Why not just go for Skitter of Lizards instead? They're still standard as well.

Nevermind, a 2/2 with haste for 1 mana? Oh my. What have you done wizards, what have you done.

Skitter of Lizards works as a poor man's substitute for Goblin Guide in the combo, just not quite as well (with a GOD hand and a miracle Top Deck on Turn 2).

Playing second rather than first:

Turn 1. Forest + Birds of Paradise

Turn 2. Mountain + Pyretic Ritual+ Pyretic Ritual + Skitter of Lizards +  Assault Strobe + Bull Rush + Tainted Strike = 10 poison counters (I think)
