Life from the Loam + Surly Badgersaur + Skirge Familiar + Tranquil Thicket

Life from the Loam

Surly Badgersaur

Skirge Familiar

Tranquil Thicket

How it works

1. Activate Tranquil Thicket's cycling ability by paying and discarding it.
2. Surly Badgersaur's second ability triggers, creating a Treasure artifact token.
3. Resolve the Tranquil Thicket ability, causing you to mill three cards and return Life from the Loam from your graveyard to your hand.
4. Activate Skirge Familiar by discarding a land card, adding .
5. Surly Badgersaur's second ability triggers, creating a Treasure artifact token.
6. Repeat from step 4 one additional time.
7. Activate two Treasure tokens by tapping and sacrificing them, adding .
8. Cast Life from the Loam by paying 1, returning Tranquil Thicket and two other lands from your graveyard to your hand.
9. Repeat.

This loop transforms a simple cycle of discarding lands into an engine that generates boundless resources. By activating Skirge Familiar, you feed land cards into the graveyard while fueling your mana pool, which in turn triggers Surly Badgersaur to churn out a steady supply of Treasure tokens for colored mana. Meanwhile, Tranquil Thicket cycles itself to draw cards—or rather, to trigger Life from the Loam via its dredge ability, allowing you to instantly scoop those discarded lands right back to your hand and keep the cycle spinning infinitely.
