How it works

  1. Play any land that enters the battlefield untapped and can tap to produce 1.
  2. When the land enters the battlefield, Kodama of the East Tree and Zendikar's Roil trigger.
  3. Resolve the Kodama of the East Tree trigger, choosing to put nothing onto the battlefield.
  4. Resolve the Zendikar's Roil trigger, creating a 2/2 Elemental creature token.
  5. When the creature token enters the battlefield, Kodama of the East Tree triggers.
  6. Holding priority, activate the land played in step 1 by tapping it, adding at least 1.
  7. Storm Cauldron triggers, returning the land from the battlefield to your hand.
  8. Resolve the Kodama of the East Tree trigger, putting the land from your hand onto the battlefield.
  9. When the land enters the battlefield, Zendikar's Roil triggers, creating a 2/2 Elemental creature token.
  10. Repeat from step 5.

This loop is a masterclass in recursive triggers, turning a simple land drop into an engine of endless creation. By pairing Zendikar's Roil with Kodama of the East Tree, every token that enters the battlefield acts as a springboard to cheat permanent cards from your hand—or in this case, set up a self-sustaining loop. The real engine driving this perpetual motion is Storm Cauldron, whose static ability instantly bounces any land tapped for mana right back to your hand, feeding it right back into Kodama of the East Tree's trigger requirements so you can play it over and over again.
