Overlord of the Hauntwoods

Displacer Kitten

Virtue of Knowledge // Vantress Visions

Flickering Ward

Archelos, Lagoon Mystic

How it works

1. Cast Flickering Ward by paying .
2. Displacer Kitten triggers, blinking Overlord of the Hauntwoods.
3. When Overlord of the Hauntwoods enters the battlefield, it triggers twice, creating two tapped Everywhere land tokens, which enter untapped due to Archelos.
4. Resolve the Flickering Ward spell.
5. Activate the two Everywhere tokens by tapping them, adding .
6. Activate Flickering Ward by paying , returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
7. Repeat.

This clever loop turns a simple enchantment bounce into a prolific engine by orchestrating a clever interplay of triggered and activated abilities. When you cast Flickering Ward, Displacer Kitten blinks Overlord of the Hauntwoods, and Virtue of Knowledge doubles the resulting entry triggers so you create two Everywhere land tokens at once. Archelos, Lagoon Mystic ensures those new land tokens immediately enter the battlefield untapped rather than tapped, allowing you to tap them for the exact white mana needed to pay Flickering Ward's activation cost and return it to your hand to start the cycle anew.
