Ghired, Mirror of the Wilds + Atla Palani, Nest Tender + Thermopod + Frostcliff Siege

Ghired, Mirror of the Wilds

Atla Palani, Nest Tender

Thermopod

Frostcliff Siege

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 Thermopod 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. Repeat from step 2.

This clever loop relies on a self-sustaining cycle of egg-hatching and duplication: Atla Palani, Nest Tender sets the engine in motion by churning out 0/1 Egg creature tokens, which Ghired, Mirror of the Wilds then quickly multiplies by tapping your nontoken creatures. When you feed those tokens to Thermopod, its sacrifice ability not only provides the red mana needed to keep Atla's activations flowing, but also triggers Atla's second ability to cheat every creature card from your library straight onto the battlefield. Meanwhile, Frostcliff Siege pumps up your board and grants trample and haste, rounding out a devastating setup that turns simple egg-cracking into an overwhelming victory.
