This self-sustaining loop turns Ant Queen into a factory that outpaces itself, fueled entirely by the mana generated from your own board. Thanks to Cryptolith Rite, every insect you summon can immediately tap for mana to help pay for the next activation. Meanwhile, Exalted Sunborn doubles the yield of every token creation event, ensuring that each cycle produces more insects than it costs in mana. Tannuk, Steadfast Second rounds it all out by granting haste to your newly minted creatures, allowing them to tap for mana the absolute instant they hit the battlefield without having to wait for summoning sickness to wear off.
