Tameshi, Reality Architect + Lotus Bloom + Copy Artifact + Darksteel Citadel

Tameshi, Reality Architect

Lotus Bloom

Copy Artifact

Darksteel Citadel

How it works

1. Activate Lotus Bloom by tapping and sacrificing it, adding or .
2. Cast Copy Artifact by paying 1, having it enter the battlefield as a copy of Darksteel Citadel.
3. Activate Copy Artifact by tapping it, adding C.
4. Activate Tameshi's second ability by paying and returning Copy Artifact from the battlefield to your hand, returning Lotus Bloom from your graveyard to the battlefield.
5. Repeat.

This clever loop relies on Tameshi, Reality Architect to repeatedly recycle your threats by bouncing your own permanents to pay for their resurrection. You start by cracking Lotus Bloom for a burst of free mana, which helps deploy Copy Artifact as an indestructible land via Darksteel Citadel. From there, Tameshi's second ability lets you sacrifice that copied land back to your hand so you can fish Lotus Bloom right back out of the graveyard and onto the battlefield. Because Copy Artifact's new status as a land makes it a noncreature permanent bouncing to your hand, Tameshi, Reality Architect even triggers to keep your hand full of options as you repeat the cycle.
