MTG Combo: Isochron Scepter + Lightning Bolt + Paradox Engine

Isochron Scepter
Lightning Bolt
Paradox Engine

This combo generates infinite:

  • Damage
  • Cast triggers

Other variations replace Lightning Bolt with Shock (or any instant-speed burn spell with CMC 2 or less).

Note: This combo requires one or more nonland permanent(s) that taps for 2+ mana.

Steps:

  1. Play Isochron Scepter and exile Lightning Bolt.
  2. Pay 2 mana to tap Isochron Scepter and cast the copy of Lightning Bolt.
  3. When Lightning Bolt is cast, deal 3 damage to target creature or opponent and untap Isochron Scepter and the nonland mana source with Paradox Engine.
  4. Repeat steps 2 and 4, dealing 3 damage infinitely.
