Urza, Prince of Kroog + Thran Dynamo + Anointed Procession + Thousand-Year Elixir
How it works
- Activate Thran Dynamo by tapping it, adding CCC.
- Activate Urza by paying 6, creating two token copies of Thran Dynamo that are 1/1 Soldiers in addition to their other types.
- Activate both Thran Dynamo tokens' abilities by tapping them, adding six C.
- Repeat from step 2.
This clever loop turns Thran Dynamo into an engine for infinite mana and an army of mechanical soldiers, all built on a foundation of exponential token growth courtesy of Anointed Procession. Because Urza, Prince of Kroog demands a hefty investment of six mana to activate its copying ability, Thran Dynamo provides the exact input needed while also acting as the target of the replication. Furthermore, Anointed Procession doubles the output of Urza's creation, instantly yielding two tapping-capable mana rocks instead of one. While Thousand-Year Elixir isn't strictly required for the core loop itself, its passive ability is what makes the whole enterprise practical—and its activated ability can even untap Urza if you need to weave other creatures into your turns. Once the loop gets rolling, Urza, Prince of Kroog also conveniently pumps your ever-growing horde of artifact creatures with a permanent +2/+2 anthem.
