Emry, Lurker of the Loch + Black Lotus + Umbral Mantle

Emry, Lurker of the Loch

Black Lotus

Umbral Mantle

How it works

1. Activate Black Lotus by tapping and sacrificing it, adding three mana of any color.
2. Activate Emry by tapping it, allowing you to cast Black Lotus from your graveyard this turn.
3. Cast Black Lotus by paying 0.
4. Activate Emry by paying 3 and untapping it, giving it +2/+2 until end of turn.
5. Repeat.

This Vintage-legal loop hinges on Emry, Lurker of the Loch, whose tap ability lets you continually replay an artifact from your graveyard. By sacrificing Black Lotus for three mana, you gain the exact funds needed to activate Umbral Mantle—which is equipped for free—to untap Emry and pump her stats to astronomical heights. Because Black Lotus can be recast straight from the graveyard each cycle, you generate an infinite storm count while fueling an infinitely large creature to close out the game.
