Defiler of Faith

Oketra's Monument

Trostani, Selesnya's Voice

Whitemane Lion

How it works

1. Cast Whitemane Lion by paying 0 and 2 life due to Defiler of Faith and Oketra's Monument.
2. Defiler of Faith and Oketra's Monument trigger.
3. Resolve the Defiler of Faith trigger, creating a 1/1 Soldier creature token.
4. When the Soldier enters, Trostani triggers, causing you to gain life.
5. Resolve the Oketra's Monument trigger, creating a 1/1 Warrior creature token.
6. When the Warrior enters, Trostani triggers, causing you to gain life.
7. Resolve Whitemane Lion. When it enters, it and Trostani trigger.
8. Resolve the Whitemane Lion trigger, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
9. Resolve the Trostani trigger, causing you to gain life.
10. Repeat.

This elegant loop transforms a humble cat into an infinite army of tokens and an endless well of life. By stacking the cost-reduction effects of Defiler of Faith and Oketra's Monument, you can cast Whitemane Lion entirely for free, paying with life instead of mana. Every time the Lion leaps onto the battlefield, its entry triggers both artifacts to churn out tokens, which in turn feed Trostani, Selesnya's Voice a steady stream of life as they arrive. Finally, the Lion's own entry trigger forces it right back to your hand, ready to be recast over and over again to perpetuate the cycle indefinitely.
