How it works

  1. Activate Ant Queen by paying 1G mana, creating two 1/1 Insect and two 1/1 Squirrel creature tokens.
  2. Activate Baylen's first ability twice by tapping the Squirrel and Insect tokens, adding 1G mana.
  3. Repeat.

This loop is a masterclass in token multiplication and mana conversion, relying on **Ant Queen** as your primary engine to pay {1}{G} and pump out insects. Because **Chatterfang, Squirrel General** and **Elspeth, Storm Slayer** both possess replacement effects that trigger whenever tokens are created, every single insect you make is immediately doubled by Elspeth and then doubled *again* by Chatterfang alongside an equal swarm of squirrels. You then feed this overwhelming token economy straight into **Baylen, the Haymaker**, whose ability to tap your massive army for mana easily generates the {1}{G} needed to recast the Ant Queen's activation and keep the chain going indefinitely.
