Wretched Throng

Ashnod's Altar

Pitiless Plunderer

Transplant Theorist

Duskwatch Recruiter // Krallenhorde Howler

How it works

1. Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing Wretched Throng, adding CC.
2. When Wretched Throng dies, it and Pitiless Plunderer trigger.
3. Holding priority, activate Transplant Theorist by paying 2, putting Wretched Throng from your graveyard onto the bottom of your library.
4. Resolve the Pitiless Plunderer trigger, creating a Treasure token.
5. Resolve the Wretched Throng trigger, putting Wretched Throng from your library into your hand.
6. Activate the Treasure by tapping and sacrificing it, adding .
7. Cast Wretched Throng by paying due to Krallenhorde Howler.
8. Repeat.

This clever loop turns the humble Wretched Throng into a self-sustaining engine by feeding it directly to Ashnod's Altar for raw mana. Pitiless Plunderer converts that steady stream of sacrifices into Treasure tokens, providing the exact currency needed to recast the throng, while Krallenhorde Howler's backside (Duskwatch Recruiter) steps in to generously discount the casting cost so the mana math works out seamlessly. Meanwhile, Transplant Theorist sits by ready to tuck the throng back into your library if needed, ensuring the whole apparatus never runs dry of fuel.
