Arcbound Reclaimer + Showdown of the Skalds + Mishra's Bauble + The Lunar Whale

Arcbound Reclaimer

Showdown of the Skalds

Mishra's Bauble

The Lunar Whale

How it works

1. Cast Mishra's Bauble either from your hand or from the top of your library by paying 0
2. Showdown of the Skalds triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on Arcbound Reclaimer.
3. Activate Mishra's Bauble by tapping and sacrificing it.
4. Activate Arcbound Reclaimer by removing a +1/+1 counter from it, putting Mishra's Bauble from your graveyard onto the top of your library.
5. Repeat.

This clever loop turns the self-sacrificing utility of Mishra's Bauble into a renewable resource by leveraging the top-of-library manipulation granted by The Lunar Whale. Once Showdown of the Skalds provides the necessary growth via its second and third lore chapters, Arcbound Reclaimer gains a renewable supply of +1/+1 counters to spend on recycling the Bauble back to the top of your library. Since Mishra's Bauble costs nothing to cast, you can continuously replay it from the top of your library—especially when permitted by The Lunar Whale's attack-dependent permission—generating an endless chain of artifact triggers and deferred card draws.
