A local wants to build it. He drafts and plays EDH, unless he can somehow find a T2 deck that interests him.
He asked me what combos to put in the deck. I told him Humility/Opalescence and Mycosynth Lattice/Engineered Explosives/Sunburst cards.
What other combos could he put in the deck?
This ain't about winning, its about memories!
Thank you for any input.
(For those who don't know, JudgeBreaker is a deck filled with opportunities to play cards that in combination with other cards, would seriously require a judge to handle, like Restating the game with Karn Liberated and having Psychosis Crawler/Phyrexian Metamorph in play. Does Crawler die immediately before you draw cards? Do you get to Crawlers? Etc).

If you are playing humility you need to play the parallax cards.

2. Raging River + Camouflag + Lure

For the record, I only know of the basic confusing stuff from Vintage, not from the whole of EDH. Don't assume that I know of any interesting situation. Throw them out there.
Raging Raving and Chains, while very on topic, are probably out of bounds due to availiability/budget. Maybe someone has a chains of mephistopheles. I've seen 1 Raging Ravine ever.

That's what I like about you, Laura - you're always willing to put my neck on the line.

My first thought was to go to town with copy effects, especially the weird ones. Volrath's Shapeshifter, Unstable Shapeshifter, Mirrorweave, that kind of stuff. After that, I'd suggest type-changing effects. Stuff like Soul Sculptor really opens the door to all kinds of really weird interactions. You've already mentioned Opalescence + Humility, and could build on that via say Enchanted Evening, Titania's Song/March of the Machines, Living Lands etc.

I suppose it's mostly the thought that this format is just one big Mistake; and not even a very sophisticated one at that.
Much like humanity itself.

The polar opposite of the turn one Serra Ascendant play. Fantastic.

The polar opposite of the turn one Serra Ascendant play. Fantastic. Actually, the cute thing about this is that your life total is zero if anything asks. That's why I'd suggest it for inclusion. Also fun: Platinum Angel + Divine Intervention Platinum Emperion + life change replacement effects (Ie. Lich)

Try Rite of Replication kicked on Hamletback Goliath....You can have 20,000 plus power on the board for 6 creatures. The math will make your head explode.
