Apex Altisaur + Gyome, Master Chef + Fall of Cair Andros

Apex Altisaur

Gyome, Master Chef

Fall of Cair Andros

How it works

1. Cast Apex Altisaur by paying 7.
2. When Apex Altisaur enters the battlefield, its first ability triggers.
3. Holding priority, activate Gyome twice by paying 2 and sacrificing two Foods, giving Apex Altisaur and any creature an opponent controls indestructible until end of turn.
4. Resolve the Apex Altisaur trigger, causing Apex Altisaur to fight the indestructible creature the opponent controls.
5. Apex Altisaur's second ability triggers, and Fall of Cair Andros triggers if the opposing creature's toughness is less than 0.
6. Resolve the Fall of Cair Andros trigger, if applicable, causing you to put a number of +1/+1 counters on an Army you control equal to the excess damage.
7. Resolve the Apex Altisaur trigger, causing it to fight the indestructible creature the opponent controls.
8. Repeat from step 5.

This loop turns an innocent-looking dinosaur into an unstoppable growth engine by exploiting indestructible combat math. When Apex Altisaur enters the battlefield, it initiates a fight that triggers its own Enrage ability when damage is dealt; by using Gyome, Master Chef to grant both the Altisaur and the target opponent's creature indestructible in advance, the opposing creature survives the blows and enables an infinite fight loop. Each time this fight happens, the massive excess noncombat damage triggers Fall of Cair Andros, pumping your Orc Army token full of infinite +1/+1 counters.
