Jackdaw Savior + Loyal Retainers + Bartolomé del Presidio

Jackdaw Savior

Loyal Retainers

Bartolomé del Presidio

How it works

1. During your precombat main phase, activate Bartolomé del Presidio by sacrificing the legendary creature with flying.
2. When the creature dies, Jackdaw Savior triggers, returning Loyal Retainers from your graveyard to the battlefield.
3. Resolve the Bartolomé del Presidio ability, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
4. Activate Loyal Retainers by sacrificing it, returning the legendary creature with flying from your graveyard to the battlefield.
5. Repeat.

This clever loop turns a graveyard into a self-sustaining engine by trading sacrifices back and forth. You begin by feeding your legendary creature to Bartolomé del Presidio, which triggers Jackdaw Savior to pluck Loyal Retainers straight out of your graveyard. Loyal Retainers then immediately cashes itself in to return that original legendary flyer to the battlefield, resetting the entire cycle. Because every iteration leaves you with a permanent +1/+1 counter on Bartolomé del Presidio while looping your creatures endlessly, you generate an infinite storm of sacrifices, deaths, and enters-the-battlefield triggers.
