Ghired, Mirror of the Wilds

Atla Palani, Nest Tender

Umbral Collar Zealot

Concordant Crossroads

How it works

1. Activate Atla by paying 2 and tapping it, creating an 0/1 Egg creature token with defender.
2. Activate Ghired by tapping a nontoken creature you control, creating a copy of the Egg token.
3. Activate Umbral Collar Zealot by sacrificing an Egg token.
4. When the Egg dies, Atla triggers, causing you to reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a creature card and put it onto the battlefield.
5. Resolve the Umbral Collar Zealot ability.
6. Repeat from step 2.

This delightful engine uses Atla Palani, Nest Tender to populate your board with fragile potential, paying mana to hatch the first 0/1 Egg creature token. Once that token is safely in play, Ghired, Mirror of the Wilds turns any of your nontoken creatures into copy factories, instantly replicating the fresh Egg on demand. You then feed those copies to Umbral Collar Zealot, whose sacrifice ability triggers Atla Palani, Nest Tender to crack open the Eggs and cheat every single creature out of your library and straight onto the battlefield. Meanwhile, Concordant Crossroads and Ghired, Mirror of the Wilds make sure haste is granted so your newly arrived army doesn't have to wait around to join the fray, while the Zealot's surveil effect keeps your library neatly organized.
