Fain, the Broker + Thornbite Staff + Pitiless Plunderer + Thermopod

Fain, the Broker

Thornbite Staff

Pitiless Plunderer

Thermopod

How it works

1. Activate Fain's third ability by tapping it and sacrificing another artifact, creating a 2/1 Inkling creature token.
2. Activate Thermopod's second ability by sacrificing the Inkling, adding .
3. When the Inkling dies, Fain and Pitiless Plunderer trigger.
4. Resolve the Fain trigger, untapping it.
5. Resolve the Pitiless Plunderer trigger, creating a Treasure token.
6. Repeat.

This loop is a masterclass in resource recycling, turning Fain, the Broker's ability to manufacture Inklings into a self-sustaining engine. With Thornbite Staff equipped, Fain gains the crucial death-triggered untap ability that keeps the loop moving forward every time a creature perishes. Meanwhile, Pitiless Plunderer and Thermopod work in tandem behind the scenes, converting those sacrifices into a steady stream of Treasures and red mana to fuel your board state.
