How it works

  1. Activate Terra, Magical Adept by paying 4R manaG mana and tapping it, causing you to exile it and return it to the battlefield as Esper Terra.
  2. As Esper Terra enters the battlefield, choose to have it enter with four lore counters due to its read-ahead ability.
  3. Esper Terra's fourth chapter ability triggers, causing you to add W manaW manaU manaU manaB manaB manaR manaR manaG manaG mana, and then exile Esper Terra and return it to the battlefield as Terra, Magical Adept.
  4. When Terra, Magical Adept enters the battlefield, it triggers, causing you to mill five cards and put up to one enchantment card milled this way into your hand.
  5. Repeat.

This clever loop transforms Terra, Magical Adept into Esper Terra using its Trance ability, setting off a chain reaction where Barbara Wright: History Teacher grants the Saga read-ahead so it can instantly jump straight to its fourth chapter. That final chapter generates a massive windfall of ten colored mana while exiling the Saga to bring it right back to its front face, triggering a fresh mill of five cards. With Frostcliff Siege providing additional permanent value on the board, the cycle feeds effortlessly back into itself, letting you repeat the entire transformation infinitely to generate boundless mana, self-mill, and enters-the-battlefield triggers.
