Skittering Precursor

Sword of the Meek

Ruination Guide

Bartolomé del Presidio

How it works

1. Activate Bartolomé del Presidio by sacrificing Sword of the Meek.
2. Skittering Precursor triggers, creating a 0/1 Eldrazi Spawn creature token.
3. When the Eldrazi Spawn enters the battlefield as a 1/1 due to Ruination Guide, Sword of the Meek triggers, returning Sword of the Meek from your graveyard to the battlefield attached to the Eldrazi Spawn.
4. Resolve the Bartolomé del Presidio ability, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
5. Repeat.

This ingenious loop transforms a humble graveyard return into an endless engine of sacrifice and growth, legal across formats from Modern to Commander. By feeding Sword of the Meek into Bartolomé del Presidio, you trigger Skittering Precursor to spawn an Eldrazi token that immediately grows into a 1/1 thanks to Ruination Guide's static anthem. That size increase is the linchpin that lets Sword of the Meek see a valid 1/1 entering the battlefield and trigger itself right back out of the graveyard, ready to be sacrificed all over again.
