How it works

  1. Cast Cloudshift by paying W mana, blinking Scrivener.
  2. When Scrivener enters the battlefield, it and Lonis trigger.
  3. Resolve the Scrivener trigger, returning Cloudshift from your graveyard to your hand.
  4. Resolve the Lonis trigger, creating a Food, a Clue, and a Treasure artifact token.
  5. Activate the Treasure by tapping and sacrificing it, adding W mana.
  6. Repeat.

This looping engine harnesses the power of blink magic to endlessly recycle spells while generating an overwhelming surplus of resources. By casting Cloudshift to exile and return Scrivener, you can repeatedly trigger its entry ability to pull Cloudshift right back out of your graveyard and into your hand. Meanwhile, Lonis, Cryptozoologist watches each of those creature entries to investigate, while Academy Manufactor steps in to turn every single Clue you would create into a full triad of a Clue, a Food, and a Treasure. By sacrificing the newly minted Treasure for the mana needed to recast Cloudshift, the loop becomes entirely self-sustaining and floods the board with infinite tokens.
