This mesmerizing loop harnesses the untap engine of Freed from the Real attached to King Macar, the Gold-Cursed, using blue mana to repeatedly tap and untap the monarch. Each untap triggers King Macar's inspired ability to exile a creature and generate a Gold token, whose production is dramatically doubled by Bard, King of Dale's replacement effect. Sacrificing those extra Gold tokens provides the exact blue mana needed to sustain the activation cost of Freed from the Real indefinitely, locking down the board by letting you instantly exile every creature your opponents control or ever try to cast.
