Doomsday is useful for infinite loops that require you to draw through your deck.
The terravore shick works with balance an a zuran orb, plus using that 6th ED rare that puts a creature from hand into play.

If someone plays Doomsday and on my next turn I play Shahrazad, doesn't that make my opponent instantly lose since he can't draw his 7 cards to start the game?

Ohh yea, a really cheap combo is Serra Avatar(toughness and strength are players heath points) with Soul Link(damage done to player or creature, player gains that much life).
You mean Spirit Link?

Soul link is a reprint. ..
Apocalypse set, if I remember right.. Because I have three. Soul Link + Armadillo cloak = double life for attacking, yo.
Soul link = you gain life per amount the creature DEALS or is DEALT. http://www.findmagiccards.com/Cards/AP/Soul_Link.html [ 04-08-2003: Message edited by: Khyron ]

I've won a game with 520 elves out (4 of those gain life elves), gaining 80 life per turn 
Mainly because he couldn't counter the unending flow of elves... and was only able to attack for 12 per turn. I won by default

Except that unless you're playing a Necropotence deck, you have 5 turns to win, or you die.If you have no cards to draw, you lose.. remember?
There are cards that allow you to skip your draw phase, if I remember correctly..
x2 Metalworkers
x3 Voltaic Key's
x2 Thran Dynamo's
x2 Worn Powerstone's
Maybe a drain life deck? Or add in some Colossus of Sardia? 
What do you think?

I don't like when people play with less than 60 cards, it just doesn't sit right with me. I like to play by the rules.
We go by the rule that states 45 is the minimum, whether or not that is current ruleset we don't care.

Delyl Caledor Model 2000 was programmed to say:
Ahh, I've only been playing Magic for about 4 months now. I've never heard of that rule before lol.
I'm asking my friends where they got that rule from, because that's what I've always been told. =P
D.13.5 - Minimum of 60 cards in a deck. [Tournament Rules 1997/10/01]
D.17.4 - Minimum of 40 cards in the play deck.
60 for Tournies, then. (Source: http://www.crystalkeep.com/magic/rules/summaries.html ) [ 04-08-2003: Message edited by: Kegwen ]
Starter decks have 60 so that you can tweak the deck a bit without having to resort to boosters.
technically you're supposed to carry a 15 card sideboard anyway.

ECP, just because you think Doomsday is supposed to be used one way doesnt mean its the ONLY way to use it. You arent God on Earth when it comes to magic.
Eh, I can try cant I?
For the wellwiser thing, see about making it green/blue so you can play clone and dance of many, so you can have 12 wellwishers in play
Or go duel nature with those and get 24 48 72 or 96
Then play 4 seedborn muse and tap 384 wellwishers every turn. which, on there own net you 147456 life
I used to love that combo far too much. :\
Even fast is Taunting elf+venom

Delphi Aegis stopped beating up furries long enough to write:
For the record, put in more voltaic keys and thran dynamos. You get a LOT of colourless mana for very few cards that way. Though, not many things use colourless mana.. save life gain where it's like, WX and you get healed for X.
Thanks for the advice...should I go with gain life deck or fireball deck then?

Anything X damage, fireball ain't the only one.

And I was all like 'Oh yeah?' and Kegwen was all like:

Yeah, I wasn't sure if Fireball said that only red mana can be spent on X, though.

Go find Jon Finkels Worlds deck from a view years ago and drool

Thanks to starcityThe Doomsday combo was thought up sometime after Weatherlight, and your five cards are Black Lotus, Lion's Eye Diamond, Timetwister, Regrowth, and either Braingeyser or Stroke of Genius. You form an infinite mana loop by casting Timetwister using Black Lotus, then taking green mana from Lion's Eye Diamond in response. You then replay the two artifacts and Regrow Timetwister, gaining one mana every iteration.

But how would that kill them? It's just creating infinite mana...not doing any dmg. And I don't have the money for a black lotus unless I use a proxy.
