How it works
Activate Ant Queen by paying 1, creating a 1/1 Insect creature token.
Activate Lotus Ring's equip ability by paying 0 due to Puresteel Paladin, attaching it to the Insect.
Activate the Insect by tapping and sacrificing it, adding .
Repeat.
Once you have infinite mana, you may repeat step 1 as desired.
This elegant loop turns the seemingly modest Ant Queen into an infinite mana and token engine, fueled by the cost-reduction magic of Puresteel Paladin. With the paladin's metalcraft online, Lotus Ring snaps onto newly hatched insects for free, allowing you to immediately sacrifice them to the ring for a net gain of mana. Meanwhile, Fires of Yavimaya grants your endless swarm of tokens haste the moment they hit the battlefield, meaning you aren't just left with a static board, but a lethal army ready to strike immediately.
