Goblin Bombardment + Rhythm of the Wild

Goblin Bombardment

Rhythm of the Wild

How it works

1. Activate Goblin Bombardment by sacrificing the persist creature.
2. When the persist creature dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield without a -1/-1 counter on it due to Rhythm of the Wild
3. Resolve the Goblin Bombardment ability.
4. Repeat

This clever engine transforms the drawback of persist creatures into a lethal loop, fueled entirely by the sacrifice outlet provided by Goblin Bombardment. While persist normally returns a creature with a -1/-1 counter that prevents it from triggering again, the riot ability granted by Rhythm of the Wild steps in to place a +1/+1 counter on the creature instead. Through the magic of state-based actions, these two opposing counters annihilate each other instantly, leaving the creature completely clean and ready to be sacrificed all over again for endless damage.
