Second, we can simply kill our own Phage the Untouchable with one of our endless removal spells to get the 'combo kill' with Endless Whispers. To make sure we have our Endless Whispers and / or Phage the Untouchable when we need them, we also have Dark Petition to search up either half of our combo. This means our opponent goes into permanent chump-block mode, because if they actually kill the Phage the Untouchable by blocking or with a removal spell (discounting things like Path to Exile that exile), it will return from our graveyard under their control at the beginning of the next end step, thanks to Endless Whispers, and they'll lose the game. First, we can start attacking our opponent with Phage the Untouchable, and if we ever get in combat damage, our opponent loses the game on the spot. The basic idea is that we'll get an Endless Whispers on the battlefield, and then cast a Phage the Untouchable. Phage the Untouchable is the only creature in our deck, but it's also the best creature in all of Magic when played alongside Endless Whispers. Our deck is looking to take advantage of both aspects of the card! Plan A: Insta-Win Combo Most importantly, since the creature dies and then returns to the battlefield, it also triggers enters-the-battlefield abilities. Not only can it work like a Donate to give an opponent a creature in conjunction with a removal spell or sacrifice outlet, but since the effect is symmetrical and impacts all creatures, it can also be used as part of a build-your-own Control Magic combo. Against the Odds: Endless Whispers Deck TechĮndless Whispers is a really unique card.

We'll talk more about Endless Whispers in a minute, but first a quick reminder. Then, when the poll returns next week, we'll have an all Eldritch Moon poll, so over the next few weeks, we'll get to cover all of the awesome new cards from the set! First, we're not going to have a poll this week because next week, we'll have a very special Eldritch Moon edition of Against the Odds.

Since Eldritch Moon-which might be the best Against the Odds set ever-is finally releasing on Magic Online this week, we are going to shake things up a bit over the next couple of weeks. Normally on the Against the Odds polls, the option that receives the most votes gets made into the video, and the next two options remain on the next poll.

Welcome to episode forty-five of Against the Odds! Last week on our Against the Odds poll, Endless Whispers snuck out a victory over a bunch of options, which means that this week we are heading to Modern to see if we can kill our opponents with some combination of deadly enters-the-battlefieldtriggers and their own creatures! One more thing before we get to the videos.
