How it works

  1. Cast Entering by paying its mana cost, targeting any applicable target.
  2. Holding priority, cast Dualcaster Mage by paying its mana cost.
  3. When Dualcaster Mage enters, it triggers, targeting Entering.
  4. Holding priority, activate Thermopod by sacrificing Dualcaster Mage.
  5. Resolve the Dualcaster Mage trigger, copying Entering, with the copy targeting Dualcaster Mage
  6. Resolve the Entering copy, returning Dualcaster Mage from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  7. Repeat from step 3.

This clever loop begins by casting the *Entering* half of Breaking // Entering to set up a target in your graveyard, then dropping Dualcaster Mage with flash to intercept it. When Dualcaster Mage enters the battlefield, its triggered ability targets the original *Entering* spell, allowing you to copy it and aim the new copy right back at the Mage in your graveyard. By feeding that very same Dualcaster Mage to Thermopod's sacrifice ability in response, you generate an endless cascade of red mana while continuously looping the Mage back from the graveyard to keep the engine running.
