How it works

  1. Cast Ghalta by paying 5G manaG manaG mana.
  2. When Ghalta enters the battlefield, it and Cloudstone Curio trigger.
  3. Resolve the Cloudstone Curio trigger, returning Sakashima of a Thousand Faces to your hand if its on the battlefield, or returning nothing to your hand otherwise.
  4. Resolve the Ghalta trigger, putting Sakashima of a Thousand Faces onto the battlefield as a copy of Ghalta from your hand.
  5. When Sakashima of a Thousand Faces enters the battlefield, it and Cloudstone Curio trigger.
  6. Resolve the Cloudstone Curio trigger, returning Ghalta to your hand from the battlefield.
  7. Resolve the Sakashima of a Thousand Faces trigger, putting Ghalta onto the battlefield from your hand.
  8. Repeat from step 2.

This clever loop lets you endlessly swap between **Ghalta, Stampede Tyrant** and **Sakashima of a Thousand Faces**, exploiting **Cloudstone Curio**'s ability to bounce a permanent whenever another of the same type enters the battlefield. Because **Sakashima of a Thousand Faces** copies **Ghalta, Stampede Tyrant** as it enters, its own entry triggers a massive hand-dump while simultaneously satisfying **Cloudstone Curio**'s condition to pick up the original. You can effortlessly repeat this back-and-forth bounce to trigger any "enters the battlefield" or "leaves the battlefield" effect infinitely as long as you have creatures left in hand to drop along the way.
