The Locust God + Species Specialist + Night of Souls' Betrayal

The Locust God

Species Specialist

Night of Souls' Betrayal

How it works

1. Draw a card.
2. The Locust God triggers, creating a 1/1 Insect creature token with flying and haste.
3. The Insect enters the battlefield and dies as a state-based action due to having 0 toughness.
4. Species Specialist triggers, causing you to draw a card.
5. Repeat.

This loop is a masterclass in turning a tragedy into a glorious engine, where Night of Souls' Betrayal serves as the grim catalyst that immediately reduces any creature with 0 toughness to the graveyard. When you draw a card, The Locust God responds by conjuring an Insect token, which promptly perishes under the enchantment's stat-shrinking curse. That swift demise triggers Species Specialist—set to Insects upon entry—allowing you to draw anew, which loops right back into The Locust God to keep the swarm spinning endlessly.
