Lonis, Genetics Expert + Clan Crafter + Krark-Clan Ironworks + Parallel Lives

Lonis, Genetics Expert

Clan Crafter

Krark-Clan Ironworks

Parallel Lives

How it works

1. Activate Lonis by paying 2 and sacrificing another artifact.
2. If the artifact was a Clue, Lonis' third ability triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on any other creature you control.
3. Resolve the Lonis ability, putting a +1/+1 counter on it and causing you to draw a card.
4. Lonis' second ability triggers, creating two Clue artifact tokens.
5. Activate Krark-Clan Ironworks by sacrificing a Clue, adding CC.
6. Lonis' third ability triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on any other creature you control.
7. Repeat.

This clever loop turns your artifact sacrifices into a self-sustaining engine of growth and card advantage, anchored by the activated ability that Clan Crafter grants to your commanders. By cycling an artifact through Krark-Clan Ironworks to generate the necessary mana, you feed Lonis, Genetics Expert the resources it needs to trigger its investigation ability. Thanks to Parallel Lives doubling every Clue token you create, each iteration yields more tokens than you spend, while Lonis's third ability capitalizes on those sacrifices to pump up your other creatures with endless +1/+1 counters.
