How it works

  1. Cast Strength of Will by paying 1G mana, targeting Triskelion.
  2. Activate Triskelion by removing a +1/+1 counter from it, dealing 1 damage to it.
  3. Triskelion triggers, putting two +1/+1 counters on it due to Lae'zel.
  4. Activate Triskelion by removing a +1/+1 counter from it, dealing 1 damage to any target.
  5. Repeat from step 2.

This clever loop turns Triskelion into a self-sustaining engine of destruction by using Strength of Will to grant it both indestructible and the ability to grow when damaged. Instead of shrinking when you remove a counter to shoot itself, Lae'zel, Vlaakith's Champion steps in as a multiplier, ensuring that every point of damage dealt to Triskelion results in a net gain of counters. This creates a surplus you can siphon off to blast any target infinitely, clearing the board and winning the game on the spot.
