How it works

  1. Activate Arcbound Ravager by sacrificing Sword of the Meek.
  2. Crime Novelist and Krenko trigger.
  3. Resolve the Crime Novelist trigger, adding R mana and putting a +1/+1 counter on the Crime Novelist.
  4. Resolve the Krenko trigger, causing you to pay R mana to create a 1/1 Goblin creature token with haste.
  5. When the Goblin enters the battlefield, Sword of the Meek triggers, returning Sword of the Meek from your graveyard to the battlefield attached to the Goblin token.
  6. Resolve the Arcbound Ravager ability from step 1.
  7. Repeat.

This clever loop transforms the humble Sword of the Meek into an endless engine of creation and growth by exploiting the constant cycling of the artifact in and out of your graveyard. Every time you feed the sword to Arcbound Ravager, Crime Novelist rewards your sacrifice by generating the red mana needed to pay Krenko, Baron of Tin Street's triggered ability. That payment spawns a hasty 1/1 Goblin token, which in turn immediately triggers the Sword of the Meek to leap straight from the graveyard back onto the battlefield, ready to be sacrificed all over again.
