Sméagol, Helpful Guide
Dúnedain Rangers
Rampaging Baloths
Phyrexian Altar
Prerequisites
What do I need to start this combo?
| All permanents on the battlefield. | |
| You don't control a Ring-bearer. You have a land card in hand. |
Steps
How does this combo work?
1 | Play a land card, triggering Dúnedain Rangers and Rampaging Baloths. |
2 | Resolve the Rampaging Baloths trigger, creating a 4/4 Beast creature token. |
3 | Resolve the Dúnedain Rangers trigger, causing the Ring to tempt you, and causing the Beast token to become your Ring-bearer. |
4 | Sméagol triggers. |
5 | Holding priority, activate Phyrexian Altar by sacrificing the Elemental, adding one mana of any color. |
6 | Resolve the Sméagol trigger, causing an opponent to reveal cards from the top of their library until they reveal a land card, then causing you to put the land onto the battlefield tapped under your control, and your opponent to put all other revealed cards into their graveyard. |
7 | When the land enters the battlefield, Dúnedain Rangers and Rampaging Baloths trigger. |
8 | Repeat from step 2. |
9 | NOTE: This combo can be stopped if an opponent runs out of lands in their library, so it is recommended to alternate opponents in between cycles to maximize the amount of iterations. |
