How it works
Cast Mana Geyser by paying 3.
Extus triggers, returning Pinnacle Monk from your graveyard to your hand.
Resolve Mana Geyser, adding for each tapped land your opponents control.
Cast Pinnacle Monk by paying its mana cost.
When Pinnacle Monk enters the battlefield, it triggers, returning Mana Geyser from your graveyard to your hand.
Activate Phantom Train by sacrificing Pinnacle Monk.
Repeat.
This loop is a masterclass in resource recycling, fueled entirely by the mana-generating power of Mana Geyser and a cleverly concealed sacrifice outlet. By casting Mana Geyser, you trigger Extus, Oriq Overlord's magecraft ability to fish Pinnacle Monk out of your graveyard, setting up a self-sustaining engine as long as your opponents control enough tapped lands to fund the recursion. Once Pinnacle Monk hits the battlefield, its enter-the-battlefield trigger promptly returns Mana Geyser right back to your hand, keeping the exchange going endlessly. To bridge the gap and clear the Monk away for its next return trip, Phantom Train steps in as a repeatable sacrifice outlet that transforms into a creature and grows with +1/+1 counters each time you feed it.
