Cryptolith Rite + Ant Queen + Quina, Qu Gourmet + Tannuk, Steadfast Second

Cryptolith Rite

Ant Queen

Quina, Qu Gourmet

Tannuk, Steadfast Second

How it works

1. Activate Ant Queen by paying 1, creating a 1/1 Frog and a 1/1 Insect creature token.
2. Activate the Frog and Insect by tapping them, adding 1.
3. Repeat

This lovely little engine scales into infinity by turning a simple bug-breeding operation into a self-sustaining mana machine. Thanks to Cryptolith Rite granting every creature the ability to tap for mana, the new arrivals immediately pay for their own creation. Ant Queen provides the core token generation, while Quina, Qu Gourmet turns every single activation into an accidental BOGO deal by doubling up your incoming tokens with an extra Frog. Meanwhile, Tannuk, Steadfast Second hangs in the background—and while its warp ability isn't needed here, its passive grant of haste ensures your newly minted token army can tap for mana right away without waiting around to catch its breath.
