Disciple of Griselbrand + Defiant Bloodlord + Aettir and Priwen

Disciple of Griselbrand

Defiant Bloodlord

Aettir and Priwen

How it works

1. Activate Disciple of Griselbrand by paying 1 and sacrificing Aettir and Priwen, causing you to gain life equal to Aettir and Priwen's toughness.
2. Defiant Bloodlord triggers, causing target opponent to lose life equal to the life you gained.

This clever loop relies on the dynamic scaling of Aettir and Priwen to feed both ends of the engine, turning your life total into a weapon. By paying {1} to activate Disciple of Griselbrand, you sacrifice the equipment to gain life equal to its toughness. That sudden influx of life triggers Defiant Bloodlord, draining an opponent for an equal amount and lowering their life total.
