How it works

  1. Activate Benthic Biomancer by paying 1U mana, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
  2. Benthic Biomancer triggers, causing you to loot.
  3. Shabraz triggers, causing you to gain 2 life and put a +1/+1 counter on Shabraz.
  4. Cleric Class triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on Benthic Biomancer.
  5. Repeat from step 2.

This loop is a delightful cascade of mutual triggers where Benthic Biomancer acts as the spark, turning its own adapt ability into a self-sustaining engine. Every time you activate Benthic Biomancer, the resulting card draw triggers Shabraz, the Skyshark, which not only grows larger in the sky but also grants you life. That lifegain is immediately amplified and intercepted by Cleric Class, whose level 2 enchantment ability rewards you by placing a +1/+1 counter back onto Benthic Biomancer. Because Benthic Biomancer just received a counter, it triggers its own looting ability again, restarting the cycle and allowing you to continuously draw through your deck while building insurmountable power.
