This clever engine transforms a simple investment of mana into a self-sustaining loop of growth and attrition. It all begins when you activate Benthic Biomancer, whose adapt ability places a +1/+1 counter and triggers its own looting effect to draw and discard a card. That drawn card immediately rouses Queza, Augur of Agonies, draining an opponent's life total while padding your own. That sudden gain in life is caught by Archangel of Thune, whose static lifelink and passive trigger distribute a fresh +1/+1 counter across all your creatures—including Benthic Biomancer itself—resetting the whole cycle and letting you repeat the cascade indefinitely.
