Anti-Venom, Horrifying Healer + Agatha's Soul Cauldron + Hardened Scales + Deathbringer Thoctar

Anti-Venom, Horrifying Healer

Agatha's Soul Cauldron

Hardened Scales

Deathbringer Thoctar

How it works

1. Activate Anti-Venom using Deathbringer Thoctar's ability by removing a +1/+1 counter from it, targeting itself and putting two +1/+1 counters on it due to its replacement effect and Hardened Scales.
2. Activate Anti-Venom using Deathbringer Thoctar's ability by removing a +1/+1 counter from it, dealing 1 damage to any target.
3. Repeat.

This clever loop turns damage prevention into an engine for destruction by feeding Deathbringer Thoctar's activated ability into Anti-Venom, Horrifying Healer via Agatha's Soul Cauldron. Because Agatha's Soul Cauldron grants exiled creature abilities to your creatures with +1/+1 counters, and Hardened Scales multiplies those counters with Anti-Venom's self-damage replacement effect, you can safely shoot yourself for a net gain of counters. Every cycle generates a surplus of +1/+1 counters that can be redirected to deal infinite damage to any target, bringing a devastating victory to Commander, Legacy, Modern, Oathbreaker, and Vintage tables alike.
