How it works

  1. Cast Polyraptor by paying 6G manaG mana.
  2. When Polyraptor enters the battlefield, Pandemonium triggers, dealing 5 damage to Polyraptor.
  3. Polyraptor dies as a state-based action due to lethal damage.
  4. Polyraptor triggers, creating a token copy of itself.
  5. Repeat from step 2 using the new Polyraptor token instead.

This delightfully chaotic loop turns Polyraptor's signature enrage ability against itself with the help of Pandemonium. As soon as you cast Polyraptor, Pandemonium's triggered ability steps in to deal 5 damage to the incoming dinosaur, triggering its copy-making text instead of letting it simply die. The resulting Polyraptor token drops right back onto the battlefield, immediately feeding another instance of Pandemonium's damage straight back into the new token to start the cycle anew. The result is an explosive cascade of infinite creature entry triggers, death triggers, and token copies ready to overwhelm the table.
