How it works

  1. Activate Stonybrook Schoolmaster by tapping it, adding 1.
  2. Stonybrook Schoolmaster triggers, creating a 1/1 Merfolk Wizard creature token.
  3. Activate Stonybrook Schoolmaster by paying 1 and untapping it, giving it +2/+2 until end of turn.
  4. Repeat.

This loop turns Stonybrook Schoolmaster into a self-sustaining token and stat-buffing factory by outfitting it with both of its magical vestments. Paradise Mantle grants the Merfolk the crucial ability to tap itself for mana, which simultaneously triggers its native power to weave a fresh 1/1 blue Merfolk Wizard creature token. Meanwhile, Training Grounds slashes the activation costs of creature abilities, reducing Umbral Mantle's untap cost from three mana down to a single mana. Because the mana produced by Paradise Mantle's tap conveniently pays for Umbral Mantle's discounted untap ability, you can cycle this sequence infinitely to grow the Schoolmaster into a colossal threat while flooding the board with an endless army of tokens.
