Lotus Ring + Puresteel Paladin + Daxos the Returned + Rising of the Day

Lotus Ring

Puresteel Paladin

Daxos the Returned

Rising of the Day

How it works

1. Activate Daxos the Returned by paying 1, creating a */* Spirit creature token.
2. Activate Lotus Ring's equip ability by paying 0 due to Puresteel Paladin, attaching it to the Spirit.
3. Activate the Spirit by tapping and sacrificing it, adding or .
4. Repeat.

This engine transforms Daxos the Returned into a self-sustaining mana generator by leveraging the synergy between Puresteel Paladin and Lotus Ring. With the Paladin's metalcraft reducing equip costs to zero, the Spirit token created by Daxos can immediately pick up Lotus Ring, tap and sacrifice itself for three mana—fueled by the haste granted from Rising of the Day—and fund the exact mana cost needed to spin Daxos again. Because the Spirit tokens enter and leave the battlefield continuously, this loop effortlessly churns out infinite death, sacrifice, and leave-the-battlefield triggers.
