How it works

  1. Cast Lumra by paying 4G manaG mana.
  2. When Lumra enters, it triggers.
  3. Holding priority, activate Squandered Resources by sacrificing a land.
  4. Repeat step 3 until you control no lands.
  5. When you sacrifice the last land, Lumra will die as a state-based action due to having 0 toughness.
  6. Resolve the Lumra trigger from step 2, causing you to mill four cards and return all lands from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped.
  7. When the lands enter, Emeria Shepherd triggers that many times.
  8. Resolve an Emeria Shepherd trigger that was triggered by a Plains, returning Lumra from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  9. Repeat from step 2.

This mesmerizing loop relies on **Lumra, Bellow of the Woods** cycling in and out of the graveyard to flood the battlefield with an avalanche of mana and recursion. By using **Squandered Resources** to sacrifice your lands—which conveniently shrinks Lumra's toughness to zero and sends it to the graveyard—you set up the perfect canvas for Lumra's entry trigger to flood your board with lands. Those returning lands immediately awaken **Emeria Shepherd**, whose landfall ability lets you bypass your hand entirely and pull Lumra straight back to the battlefield when a Plains hits, restarting the cycle.
