How it works

  1. Activate Famished Paladin by tapping it, creating a 1/1 Elf Warrior creature token.
  2. When the Elf Warrior enters the battlefield, Leyline of Vitality triggers, causing you to gain 1 life.
  3. Famished Paladin triggers, untapping itself.
  4. Repeat.

This clever pairing transforms a humble creature into a self-sustaining token machine by weaponizing the life-gain engine provided by Leyline of Vitality whenever a new body appears. By enchanting Famished Paladin with Presence of Gond, you gain the ability to tap the Paladin to produce a 1/1 Elf Warrior token directly to the battlefield. That new arrival triggers Leyline of Vitality to grant you a life, which in turn untaps Famished Paladin via its own triggered ability, leaving it primed to tap for another Elf and repeat the loop indefinitely.
