Xavier Sal, Infested Captain + Intruder Alarm + Avenger of Zendikar + Jyoti, Moag Ancient

Xavier Sal, Infested Captain

Intruder Alarm

Avenger of Zendikar

Jyoti, Moag Ancient

How it works

1. Activate Xavier Sal by tapping it and removing a counter from a permanent you control, creating a token copy of the Forest Dryad token.
2. When the Forest Dryad enters the battlefield, Intruder Alarm and Avenger of Zendikar trigger.
3. Resolve the Avenger of Zendikar trigger, putting a counter on a creature you control.
4. Resolve the Intruder Alarm trigger, untapping all creatures.
5. Repeat.

This clever Commander loop hinges on turning Xavier Sal, Infested Captain into an engine that constantly refreshes itself through Intruder Alarm's untap trigger. By tapping Xavier Sal to populate a Forest Dryad created by Jyoti, Moag Ancient, you trigger Intruder Alarm to untap your entire board—including Xavier Sal—while Avenger of Zendikar's landfall ability pumps your growing army of Plant tokens with +1/+1 counters. Those counters aren't just for power, either; they serve as the exact fuel Xavier Sal needs to keep stripping counters and repeating the cycle.
