How it works

  1. Cast Kor Skyfisher by paying 0 and 2 life due to Defiler of Faith and Helm of Awakening.
  2. Defiler of Faith triggers, creating a 1/1 Soldier creature token.
  3. When the Soldier enters, Kor Celebrant triggers, causing you to gain life.
  4. Resolve Kor Skyfisher. When it enters, it and Kor Celebrant trigger.
  5. Resolve the Kor Skyfisher trigger, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
  6. Resolve the Kor Celebrant trigger, causing you to gain life.
  7. Repeat.

This clever loop turns Kor Skyfisher into a self-sustaining engine by utilizing Helm of Awakening and Defiler of Faith to completely eliminate its mana cost, allowing you to cast it over and over for just 2 life apiece. Every single time Kor Skyfisher enters the battlefield, Defiler of Faith rewards your white permanent spell with a fresh Soldier token, which in turn triggers Kor Celebrant to cushion your life total against the cost of the Defiler. As Kor Skyfisher's own entry trigger forces you to bounce it right back to your hand, the cycle resets instantly, yielding an endless parade of creature tokens, life, and storm count.
