Emry, Lurker of the Loch + Thornbite Staff + Ornithopter + Phantom Train

Emry, Lurker of the Loch

Thornbite Staff

Ornithopter

Phantom Train

How it works

1. Activate Emry by tapping it, allowing you to cast Ornithopter from your graveyard this turn.
2. Cast Ornithopter from your graveyard by paying 0.
3. Activate Phantom Train by sacrificing Ornithopter.
4. When Ornithopter dies, Emry triggers, untapping Emry.
5. Resolve the Phantom Train ability.
6. Repeat.

This ingenious loop centers around Emry, Lurker of the Loch, who conveniently shares the Shaman creature type to instantly pick up Thornbite Staff the moment she hits the board. With the Staff equipped, Emry gains the ability to tap and ping, but more importantly, Thornbite Staff’s passive trigger untaps her every single time a creature dies. By leveraging Ornithopter's zero-mana cost as the recurring artifact cast via Emry's tap ability, you can repeatedly sacrifice it to Phantom Train to trigger the Staff's untap condition. This lets you continuously loop the Ornithopter from the graveyard to the battlefield and into the graveyard once more, building up an infinite storm count and endless +1/+1 counters on Phantom Train.
