Lotus Ring + Puresteel Paladin + Jade Mage + Tannuk, Steadfast Second

Lotus Ring

Puresteel Paladin

Jade Mage

Tannuk, Steadfast Second

How it works

1. Activate Jade Mage by paying 2, creating a 1/1 Saproling creature token.
2. Activate Lotus Ring's equip ability by paying 0 due to Puresteel Paladin, attaching it to the Saproling.
3. Activate the Saproling by tapping and sacrificing it, adding .
4. Repeat.

This clever loop turns your green mana into an endless cycle of sacrifice and rebirth by transforming a humble token generator into a self-sustaining engine. With Puresteel Paladin's metalcraft ability active, you can slide Lotus Ring onto your newly created creature for free, letting you immediately sacrifice that creature for a generous three-mana return via Lotus Ring's activated ability. Because Jade Mage only asks for two green mana to produce another 1/1 green Saproling creature token, the mana generated by the ring completely covers the cost to start the cycle over again. Meanwhile, Tannuk, Steadfast Second sits comfortably in the background, making sure your pieces are ready for action the moment they hit the battlefield.
