How it works

  1. Cast Strength of Will by paying 1G mana, targeting Basking Broodscale.
  2. Put a +1/+1 counter on Basking Broodscale.
  3. Basking Broodscale triggers, creating a creature token.
  4. When the creature token enters, Pandemonium triggers, dealing damage to Basking Broodscale.
  5. Basking Broodscale triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
  6. Repeat from step 3.

This clever loop revolves around Basking Broodscale, which acts as both the engine and the payoff when primed by Strength of Will to survive damage and pile on the counters. By leveraging Pandemonium, every Eldrazi Spawn token generated by Basking Broodscale's triggered ability enters the battlefield to deal damage back to the Broodscale itself. Thanks to the indestructible and damage-to-counter conversion granted by Strength of Will, that incoming damage perpetually feeds Basking Broodscale's adapt-like growth to sustain an endless cycle of token creation and mana production.
