How it works

  1. Cast Traveling Plague by paying 3B manaB mana, attaching it to another creature you control.
  2. When Traveling Plague enters, Gremlin Tamer triggers, creating a creature token.
  3. Activate Carrion Feeder by sacrificing the creature Traveling Plague is attached to.
  4. When the creature dies, Traveling Plague triggers, returning itself from your graveyard to the battlefield attached to the token created in step 2.
  5. When Traveling Plague enters, Gremlin Tamer triggers, creating a creature token.
  6. Resolve the Carrion Feeder ability.
  7. Repeat from step 3.

This fascinating loop turns an obscure Aura into an engine of endless sacrifice by exploiting its own recycling mechanic. When you attach Traveling Plague to a creature, you can use Carrion Feeder to feed that creature to the graveyard, which immediately forces Traveling Plague to trigger and return itself straight back to the battlefield. Because Gremlin Tamer watches for enchantments entering the battlefield via its eerie ability, every single cycle of this recursion spits out a fresh 1/1 red Gremlin token for Traveling Plague to latch onto next. The result is a self-sustaining loop that infinitely triggers sacrifices and creature arrivals while steadily growing Carrion Feeder to boundless proportions.
