How it works

  1. Activate Dino DNA by paying 6, creating a token copy of Phylath that is a 6/6 Dinosaur.
  2. When the Phylath token enters the battlefield, its first ability triggers, creating at least two 0/1 Plant creature tokens.
  3. Activate Ashnod's Altar three times by sacrificing the Phylath token and two Plants, adding six C.
  4. Repeat.
  5. If you control three or more basic lands, this combo nets infinite colorless mana and creature tokens.

This loop turns the recursive cloning power of Dino DNA into a self-sustaining engine by utilizing Phylath, World Sculptor to instantly supply a troop of Plant tokens upon entering the battlefield. With at least three basic lands to fuel Phylath's initial trigger, every iteration of the copy yields enough fodder to sacrifice to Ashnod's Altar, generating a net profit of colorless mana while fueling the cycle over and over again. Because Dino DNA only asks for six mana to recreate the process, the Altar's sacrifice proceeds comfortably fund the next clone, netting you boundless copies, mana, and triggers.
