How it works

  1. Cast Whip Silk by paying G mana.
  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 Whip Silk spell.
  5. Activate the two Everywhere tokens by tapping them, adding G manaG mana.
  6. Activate Whip Silk by paying G mana, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
  7. Repeat.

This loop transforms a humble Aura into an infinite engine by leveraging a clever interplay of triggers and mana generation. Whenever you cast Whip Silk, Displacer Kitten's ability triggers to blink Overlord of the Hauntwoods. Thanks to Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines doubling that entrance trigger, Overlord of the Hauntwoods floods the battlefield with multiple Everywhere tokens simultaneously. Those tokens naturally want to enter tapped, but Archelos, Lagoon Mystic deftly keeps them entering untapped so they can immediately be tapped for green mana. You simply use that generated mana to bounce Whip Silk back to your hand with its own activation, ready to cast the enchantment all over again.
