Bring Dingus Egg, Ankh of Mishra, and Zuran Orb into play.

Now cast Armageddon. Sacrifice all of your lands to Zuran Orb, which gains you life, and prevents you from taking damage by Dingus Egg (and by Planar Birth). You opponent(s) take 2 damage for each land lost.

Next cast Planar Birth. This brings all the lands back out of the graveyard and into play, which deals an additional 2 damage to your opponents from Ankh of Mishra.

The end result is that your opponent takes 4 damage for each basic land he/she controls.

The downside is that you lose all of your lands - but if your opponent dies in this process, then that doesn't matter.

The problem is the Dingus Egg will still trigger when you sac your lands, it's just that yo'll gain and loose 2 life for each land so there's no net loss or gain. You WILL however take 2 Damage from each land when planar brings them into play. I feel like this same basic combo is easier with a couple acidic soils and a CoP Red.

Terra Eternal could miserably destroy this combo and make you, the combo user, look like a jackass.

Mike, believe it or not, there is a way to stop almost every combo!

EDIT: Plus, Terra Eternal wasn't made when this combo came out.

But you wouldn't have any lands left to play planar birth, unless you maybe added khalni gem. Or somthing like that.

Why does the estimated combo cost so high even though the cards used aren't very expensive? Does the site use the highest costing edition of a card to determine the total cost of the combo?
