Haru, Hidden Talent + Dryad Arbor + Leyline of Transformation + Phantom Train
How it works
- Play Dryad Arbor.
- When Dryad Arbor enters as an Ally due to Leyline of Transformation, Haru triggers, earthbending Dryad Arbor.
- Activate Dryad Arbor by tapping it, adding .
- Activate Phantom Train by sacrificing Dryad Arbor.
- When Dryad Abor dies, Haru triggers, returning Dryad Arbor from your graveyard to the battlefield.
- When Dryad Arbor enters as an Ally due to Leyline of Transformation, Haru triggers, earthbending Dryad Arbor.
- Resolve the Phantom Train ability.
- Repeat from step 3.
This ingenious loop relies on Leyline of Transformation to paint every creature—including your lands and spells—with the Ally creature type, turning Dryad Arbor into a living, breathing Ally the moment it hits the board. That crucial typing allows Haru, Hidden Talent to recognize Dryad Arbor's arrival and immediately earthbend it into a land-creature, setting up a recursive engine where you can tap Dryad Arbor for green mana before feeding it to Phantom Train as a sacrifice. Because Haru, Hidden Talent watches over your earthbent lands with a safety net, sending Dryad Arbor to the graveyard simply triggers its return back to the battlefield, ready to be recast as an Ally, re-earthbent, and sacrificed all over again for infinite mana and triggers.
