Famished Paladin + Elemental Mastery + Trespasser's Curse

Famished Paladin

Elemental Mastery

Trespasser's Curse

How it works

1. Tap Famished Paladin to create 3 1/1 creature tokens with haste.
2. The token ETBs, triggering Trespasser's Curse three times, gaining you 1 life and losing you 1 life three times.
3. Famished Paladin triggers, untapping itself.
4. Repeat for infinite creature tokens.

This clever loop turns simple life gain into a bustling army by turning Famished Paladin into a mana-free tapping machine. Once you enchant the Paladin with Elemental Mastery, tapping it normally creates three hasty tokens, but because Trespasser's Curse sits on your opponent as a passive monitor, every single token entering the battlefield triggers a life gain event. That stray droplet of life immediately awakens Famished Paladin's untap ability, letting you tap right back into the Mastery to repeat the process infinitely.
