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 Shilgengar 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 Shilgengar ability.
  6. Repeat from step 2.

This fascinating loop uses Atla Palani, Nest Tender to hatch every single creature out of your library, fueled by the replication engine of Ghired, Mirror of the Wilds copying those freshly minted Egg tokens. To keep the cycle spinning, Shilgengar, Sire of Famine steps in as the ultimate sacrifice outlet, turning your broken shells into Blood tokens while simultaneously offering a massive graveyard-recursion backup plan. Meanwhile, Purphoros, Bronze-Blooded ensures your assembled army can immediately strike with haste and even helps cheat heavy hitters directly into play from your hand.
