Chainer, Dementia Master + Su-Chi + Mycosynth Lattice + Verdant Sun's Avatar + Ashnod's Altar

Chainer, Dementia Master

Su-Chi

Mycosynth Lattice

Verdant Sun's Avatar

Ashnod's Altar

How it works

1. Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing Su-Chi, adding CC.
2. When Su-Chi dies, it triggers, adding CCCC.
3. Activate Chainer by paying 3 and 3 life, returning Su-Chi to the battlefield from your graveyard.
4. When Su-Chi enters the battlefield, Verdant Sun's Avatar triggers, causing you to gain life equal to Su-Chi's toughness.
5. Repeat.

This intricate loop is masterminded by Chainer, Dementia Master, who repeatedly resurrects Su-Chi from the graveyard by paying black mana and life while converting it into a Nightmare. To fuel this constant resurrection, Ashnod's Altar and Su-Chi's own death trigger work in tandem to generate a surplus of mana every time the automaton goes to the graveyard. Meanwhile, Mycosynth Lattice transforms all permanents and cards into artifacts, though its presence here serves to anchor the battlefield conditions while Chainer's reanimation machinery runs indefinitely. Finally, Verdant Sun's Avatar ensures you stay completely safe from Chainer's life-payment cost by netting you free life with every single creature entry, turning this relentless mechanical cycle into an unstoppable engine.
