Long Feng, Grand Secretariat + Thopter Squadron + Thermopod

Long Feng, Grand Secretariat

Thopter Squadron

Thermopod

How it works

1. Activate Thopter Squadron by paying 1 and removing a +1/+1 counter from it, creating a creature token.
2. Activate Thermopod by sacrificing the creature token, adding .
3. When the creature token dies, Lord Feng triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on Thopter Squadron.
4. Repeat.

This ingenious loop relies on a clever cycle of resource conversion centered around Thopter Squadron, which spends its native counters to spawn a 1/1 flying token. Thermopod provides the crucial engine room, instantly converting that newly hatched token into red mana by sacrificing it to the altar. Meanwhile, Long Feng, Grand Secretariat acts as the watchful eye of the court, continuously recycling your sacrificed assets by placing a fresh +1/+1 counter back onto Thopter Squadron every time one of your permanents perishes.
