How it works

  1. Activate Zuran Orb by sacrificing any land, causing you to gain 2 life.
  2. Repeat step 1 until you have at least six land cards in your graveyard, with one of those cards being a Swamp.
  3. Activate Aftermath Analyst by paying 3G mana and sacrificing it, returning all land cards from your graveyard to the battlefield untapped due to Spelunking.
  4. Activate any number of lands by tapping them, adding at least 3B manaB manaG mana.
  5. Activate Strands of Night by paying B manaB mana and 2 life and sacrificing a Swamp, returning Aftermath Analyst from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  6. When Aftermath Analyst enters, it triggers, causing you to mill three cards.
  7. Repeat.

This ingenious engine turns your graveyard into a revolving door for lands, fueled by Zuran Orb to bin them away for life while Spelunking ensures every single one returns completely untapped to flood your mana pool. Once the lands are back, you can tap them to fund Strands of Night, paying life and sacrificing a Swamp to pull Aftermath Analyst right back out of the graveyard. Every time Aftermath Analyst returns, its entrance triggers a fresh self-mill to feed your land count even higher, keeping the cycle spinning infinitely to fuel massive amounts of mana, life, and landfall triggers.
