This is a slight, but devastating variation on my previous post.

Have the following on the battlefield: Aluren,
Cloudstone Curio, Mycosynth Lattice and at least one creature with CMC 3 or less.


In your hand should be a Viridian Corrupter.

Play Viridian Corrupter (at any time, via Aluren) and take the CMC 3 or less creature back to your hand (via Cloudstone Curio); Destroy target permanent (due to Mycosynth Lattice). Play the creature you took back to your hand and take Viridian Corrupter back.

Rinse and repeat until it is back to square one for all your opponents. Obviously they should scoop as they won't be able to play anything.

Nope! Curio says nonartifact! Lattice makes everything an artifact!

@PinkiePie: Perhaps you're right.

But what about this line of reasoning: Mycosynth Lattice's "ability" is a static one. Once the creature is on the battlefield, it is indeed an artifact. But not while it enters the battlefield.

Thats exactly why it doesnt work, its a static ability...! There is NO TIME when your creature enters the battlefield that it isnt an artifact!

@PinkiePie: I see. I wasn't sure how the technicalities worked. So once a creature enters it is immediately an artifact and therefore considered to have been an artifact "all the way" by Cloudstone Curio?

In that case, scrap Mycosynth Lattice for Liquimetal Coating and Dross Scorpion. Makes the combo slightly unwieldy, but it still works.
