The Locust God + Korvold, Fae-Cursed King + Thermopod
How it works
- Activate Thermopod's second ability by sacrificing another creature, adding .
- Korvold's second ability triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on it and causing you to draw a card.
- The Locust God triggers, causing you to create a 1/1 Insect creature token with haste.
- Repeat.
This loop transforms the simple act of sacrificing a creature into a self-sustaining engine of mana and mayhem, legal in formats like Commander, Legacy, Modern, Oathbreaker, and Vintage. Thermopod provides the crucial outlet by turning any creature sacrifice into red mana, which feeds right into Korvold, Fae-Cursed King's persistent hunger—triggering a +1/+1 counter and drawing you a card every time a permanent is fed to the flames. Meanwhile, The Locust God watches the card flow and immediately populates your board with hasty 1/1 Insect tokens to replace whatever you just lost. Those very same Insects then become fresh fodder for Thermopod, keeping the loop spinning endlessly to churn out near-infinite red mana, death triggers, and a catastrophically huge Korvold.
