A new MTG set means more opportunities for players to pull off disgusting combos that end the game in short order. Every new set introduces infinite combos for players to explore, and Bloomburrow is no different. A lot of these combos, as far as function goes, already existed. We just have new cards that can pull off similar things.
That said, there are some truly unique cards from this set, specifically from the Commander decks. Whether the combo is something we’ve seen before, or something entirely new, here are a bunch of infinite combos that utilize cards from MTG Bloomburrow.
Exquisite Blood + Starscape Cleric
Exquisite Blood infinite combos are nothing new to the world of MTG. Sanguine Bond is the traditional card that goes infinite with Exquisite Blood, creating a feedback loop between the two abilities. Life loss causes life gain, and life gain causes life loss. This will continue until something dies.
Exquisite Blood and Starscape Cleric create the same loop. Starscape Cleric triggers on life gain, making each opponent lose a life. This triggers Exquisite Blood, gaining you a life. Rinse and repeat.
There are already a ton of cards that do the same job as Starscape Cleric in this combo. Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose and Dina, Soul Steeper are some examples.
Enter the Infinite + Twenty-Toed Toad
This technically isn’t an infinite combo. It does, however, win the game on the spot… sort of. Enter the Infinite allows you to draw your entire deck and put one card on top of it. While this alone is enough to win the game, it is one of the easiest ways to enable this new alternate win condition from the Peace Offering MTG Bloomburrow precon.
Since you’ll easily have more than 20 cards in your hand after resolving Enter the Infinite, winning with Twenty-Toed Toad is just one attack trigger away. Since you need to attack with Twenty-Toed Toad, your opponents have plenty of time to stop you. Counterspells and removal all stop this combo from going off, making it a rather fragile one. That said, if you want to make Twenty-Toed Toad work, this is a simpler way to do that!
Dramatic Reversal + Kitsa, Otterball Elite
If you want to run this adorable new Otter as your Commander, you can include an infinite combo in your deck! Even though this combo only involves two cards, you need to put in some work to make it tick.
Firstly, you need to be able to activate Kitsa, Otterball Elite’s copy ability. This generally requires triggering Prowess one additional time before going off with your infinite combo. In a similar vein, Kitsa cannot have summoning sickness since you need to tap it to use the copy ability.
Secondly, you need nonland permanents that can tap for at least two mana. This is required to continually activate Kitsa’s copy ability. If you want infinite mana, you need to be able to generate more than two mana this way.
If you have all of this put together, you can cast infinite copies of Dramatic Reversal. You need to be able to cast the spell and copy it while holding priority, but four mana isn’t too expensive. This will create a copy of Dramatic Reversal, untapping all of your nonland permanents. Importantly, this untaps Kitsa, Otterball Elite, allowing you to copy Dramatic Reversal again.
Rinse, and repeat, gaining whatever advantages that infinite untaps gets you.
Maha, Its Feathers Night + Night of Souls’ Betrayal
This combo is just mean. You won’t be doing any infinite loop shenanigans with Maha, its Feathers Night and Night of Souls’ Betrayal, but your opponents will never get a creature into play.
Maha makes all of your opponents creatures have Toughness one, and Night of Souls’ Betrayal gives all creatures -1/-1 as long as it sticks around. The card is an enchantment, so it has no reason to go anywhere outside of it being removed.
This creates a situation where any creatures your opponents try to play will die as soon as they touch the battlefield. This can totally invalidate a ton of Commander strategies.
Fortunately, breaking up this combo isn’t difficult as long as your opponents have removal. That said, if they remove Maha, and it happens to be your Commander, every time your bird hits the battlefield, every one of your opponent’s creatures will die.
Kaervek, the Spiteful accomplishes the same thing alongside Maha, its Feathers Night. This allows the combo to become even more consistent if that is what you desire.

Starfall Invocation + Dualcaster Mage
Unlike the other combos that appear in this article, Starfall Invocation and Dualcaster Mage is something that we’ve talked about before. If you’ve ever wanted to deck out an opponent using a boardwipe, this combo presents that unique opportunity. Promise a Gift of a card to an opponent and respond to your Starfall Invocation by casting Dualcaster Mage, copying it. Your copied boardwipe resolves, wiping the board and bringing your Dualcaster Mage back. This can copy Starfall Invocation once again, creating an infinite loop. Every time you do this, your opponent draws a card, eventually decking out!
Like Kaervek for Maha, Its Feathers Night, there are a few other cards that can take on the role of Dualcaster Mage in this combo. Naru Meha, Master Wizard is an example.
There are some problems with this combo. Firstly, you cannot change what opponent you Promised a Gift to as you copy this spell. That means you can only deck out one opponent this way. Secondly, this combo isn’t difficult to break up with removal. Starfall Invocation needs to be the thing that kills your Dualcaster Mage in order to bring it back, so all your opponent needs to do is remove it some other way. This, ironically, turns a death combo into a massive advantage for your opponent, since they get to draw as many cards as they want before trying to remove your creature. In order to prevent this from happening, we recommend utilizing something like Teferi, Time Raveler to make your opponent unable to interact with your combo.
More Combos Out There!
We only covered two-card combos in this article, but there are more new MTG Bloomburrow combos out there that involve three or more cards. If you want to check some of those out, Commander Spellbook has even more combos for daring players to consider.
Whether you want to try winning with Twenty-Toed Toad, or want to stop opponents from keeping any creatures in play, this combos have a ton of potential. If you want to win games of Magic using Bloomburrow cards in style, look no further.
