Fain, the Broker + Thornbite Staff + Pitiless Plunderer + Phantom Train

Fain, the Broker

Thornbite Staff

Pitiless Plunderer

Phantom Train

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 Phantom Train by sacrificing the Inkling.
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. Resolve the Phantom Train ability
7. Repeat.

This loop transforms the humble Inkling created by Fain, the Broker into a relentless engine of growth and wealth, fueled entirely by the passive presence of Pitiless Plunderer and Thornbite Staff. As Fain sacrifices the Inkling to power Phantom Train, Pitiless Plunderer steps in to generate a fresh Treasure token upon the creature's death, ensuring your material resources never deplete. Meanwhile, Thornbite Staff watches from the sidelines, using its triggered ability to automatically untap Fain whenever a creature perishes, completely bypassing the need to spend mana on Fain's usual untap cost. This leaves Phantom Train free to continually absorb those sacrificed bodies for +1/+1 counters while Fain and Pitiless Plunderer effortlessly sustain the cycle.
