Defiler of Faith + Suture Priest + Whitemane Lion + Grand Arbiter Augustin IV

Defiler of Faith

Suture Priest

Whitemane Lion

Grand Arbiter Augustin IV

How it works

1. Cast Whitemane Lion by paying 0 and 2 life due to Defiler of Faith and Grand Arbiter Augustin IV.
2. Defiler of Faith triggers, creating a 1/1 Soldier creature token.
3. When the Soldier enters, Suture Priest triggers, causing you to gain life.
4. Resolve Whitemane Lion. When it enters, it and Suture Priest trigger.
5. Resolve the Whitemane Lion trigger, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
6. Resolve the Suture Priest trigger, causing you to gain life.
7. Repeat.

This loop uses Grand Arbiter Augustin IV to reduce Whitemane Lion's cost by {1}, while Defiler of Faith lets you pay 2 life instead of the remaining {W}, making the Lion completely free to cast. Each time you cast the Lion, Defiler of Faith triggers to create a 1/1 Soldier token, which in turn causes Suture Priest to trigger and gain you life. When Whitemane Lion enters the battlefield, its own trigger forces it right back to your hand, allowing you to seamlessly repeat the entire process for an infinite storm count, life gain, and token army.
