How it works

  1. Deal combat damage to an opponent using Living Hive.
  2. Living Hive triggers, creating six 1/1 Insect creature tokens.
  3. Move to your postcombat main phase.
  4. Activate Thermopod's second ability at least five times by sacrificing at least five Insects, adding at least R manaR manaR manaR manaR mana.
  5. Activate Aggravated Assault by paying 3R manaR mana, untapping all creatures you control and causing you to get an additional combat and main phase after this one.
  6. Repeat.

This engine transforms the insect-spawning wrath of Living Hive into an endless loop of warfare, fueled by the relentless sacrifice engine of Thermopod. As your massive swarm connects with an opponent, Living Hive's combat damage trigger floods the board with tiny tokens that Thermopod readily converts into the red mana you need. That mana directly powers Aggravated Assault, whose ability untaps your entire board and grants you a fresh combat phase to send your newly minted bugs charging in all over again.
