Defiler of Faith + Oketra's Monument + Elas il-Kor, Sadistic Pilgrim + Kor Skyfisher

Defiler of Faith

Oketra's Monument

Elas il-Kor, Sadistic Pilgrim

Kor Skyfisher

How it works

1. Cast Kor Skyfisher by paying 0 and 2 life due to Defiler of Faith and Oketra's Monument.
2. Defiler of Faith and Oketra's Monument trigger.
3. Resolve the Defiler of Faith trigger, creating a 1/1 Soldier creature token.
4. When the Soldier enters, Elas il-Kor triggers, causing you to gain life.
5. Resolve the Oketra's Monument trigger, creating a 1/1 Warrior creature token.
6. When the Warrior enters, Elas il-Kor triggers, causing you to gain life.
7. Resolve Kor Skyfisher. When it enters, it and Elas il-Kor trigger.
8. Resolve the Kor Skyfisher trigger, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
9. Resolve the Elas il-Kor trigger, causing you to gain life.
10. Repeat.

This clever loop turns the self-bouncing drawback of Kor Skyfisher into an engine by reducing its cost to a mere 2 life with the combined efforts of Defiler of Faith and Oketra's Monument. As you repeatedly cast and return the Kor Skyfisher, the casting triggers from Defiler of Faith and Oketra's Monument flood your board with token creatures, while Elas il-Kor, Sadistic Pilgrim sits back to turn every single entry into a steady stream of life. Because the resulting tokens and enters-the-battlefield events feed right back into the loop, you can continuously replay the Kor Skyfisher to generate an unbounded storm count and endless lifegain.
