How it works

  1. Play Golgari Rot Farm. When it enters untapped due to Archelos, Golgari Rot Farm and Springheart Nantuko trigger.
  2. Holding priority, activate Golgari Rot Farm by tapping it, adding B manaG mana.
  3. Resolve the Golgari Rot Farm trigger, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
  4. Resolve the Springheart Nantuko trigger, causing you to pay 1G mana to create a token copy of Dryad of the Ilysian Grove.
  5. Because of the additional Dryad of the Ilysian Grove token, you can play an additional land this turn.
  6. Repeat.

This fascinating loop turns a humble bounce-land into an engine for endless multiplication by manipulating how permanents arrive on the battlefield. With Archelos, Lagoon Mystic positioned in its untapped state, Golgari Rot Farm manages to enter the battlefield untapped rather than its usual sluggish pace, immediately triggering its own return-to-hand clause alongside the landfall ability of a bestow-cast Springheart Nantuko attached to a creature. By tapping the Rot Farm for mana before it bounces itself back to your hand, you generate the exact green mana needed to pay for Springheart Nantuko's landfall trigger, which rewards you by stamping out a token copy of Dryad of the Ilysian Grove. Because Dryad of the Ilysian Grove grants you the ability to play an additional land each turn, you can continuously replay the same Golgari Rot Farm over and over to fuel an infinite storm of creature enters-the-battlefield effects, creature tokens, and landfall triggers.
