Puresteel Paladin + Haakon, Stromgald Scourge + Lotus Ring + Hammer of Purphoros

Puresteel Paladin

Haakon, Stromgald Scourge

Lotus Ring

Hammer of Purphoros

How it works

1. Activate Lotus Ring's equip ability by paying 0, attaching it to the Knight.
2. Activate the Knight by tapping and sacrificing it, adding three mana of any color.
3. Cast the Knight from your graveyard by paying its mana cost.
4. Repeat.
5. If the Knight has mana value 2 or less, this combo nets infinite mana.

This clever loop transforms graveyard recursion and free equipment costs into a surging engine for infinite mana and storm count. With metalcraft active, Puresteel Paladin grants the team a zero-mana equip cost, allowing Lotus Ring to snap instantly onto your creature without draining your resources. Because Haakon, Stromgald Scourge allows you to cast Knight spells directly from your graveyard, the creature you sacrifice to Lotus Ring's mana ability can simply be re-cast right back onto the battlefield. Meanwhile, Hammer of Purphoros ensures that whatever fodder you rely on can attack immediately or feed your strategy right out of the gate.
