How it works

  1. Activate Altar of Dementia by sacrificing another creature.
  2. When the creature dies as an Egg due to Arcane Adaptation, Atla triggers, revealing a creature card from your library and putting it onto the battlefield.
  3. Resolve the Altar of Dementia ability.
  4. Repeat as desired / able.

This loop transforms your library into a revolving door of threats by rewriting the very biology of your battlefield with Arcane Adaptation, which ensures every creature you control is treated as an Egg. With that type-changing enchantment in play, when you feed creatures to the mill-stone mill of Altar of Dementia, Atla Palani, Nest Tender sees them perish and immediately replaces them by cracking open your library to cheat the next creature straight onto the battlefield. Because Atla Palani herself can churn out the initial tokens to kickstart the chain, this engine can keep looping until every single creature card in your deck has marched onto the battlefield and into the graveyard.
