How it works

  1. Cast Leonin Relic-Warder by paying W manaW mana.
  2. When Leonin Relic-Warder enters the battlefield, its first ability triggers.
  3. Holding priority, activate Parallax Wave by removing a fade counter from it, exiling Karmic Guide.
  4. Resolve the Leonin Relic-Warder trigger, exiling Parallax Wave.
  5. When Parallax Wave leaves the battlefield, it triggers.
  6. Holding priority, activate Thermopod's second ability by sacrificing Leonin Relic-Warder, adding R mana.
  7. When Leonin Relic-Warder leaves the battlefield, its second ability triggers, returning Parallax Wave from exile to the battlefield.
  8. Resolve the Parallax Wave trigger from step 5, returning Karmic Guide from exile to the battlefield.
  9. When Karmic Guide enters the battlefield, it triggers, returning Leonin Relic-Warder from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  10. Repeat from step 2.

This loop is a masterclass in recursive geometry, turning the temporary exile of Parallax Wave into a permanent engine of resurrection and sacrifice. By using Parallax Wave to temporarily remove Karmic Guide, you set up a cascade where Leonin Relic-Warder continuously exiles and re-enters the battlefield alongside the enchantment. Thermopod acts as the necessary pressure valve in this ecosystem, converting the relentless cycle of sacrifices into an infinite supply of red mana and triggers.
