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, Impassioned Orator 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, Impassioned Orator triggers, causing you to gain life.
  7. Resolve Kor Skyfisher. When it enters, it and Impassioned Orator trigger.
  8. Resolve the Kor Skyfisher trigger, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
  9. Resolve the Impassioned Orator trigger, causing you to gain life.
  10. Repeat.

This elegant loop turns the self-bouncing drawback of Kor Skyfisher into a continuous engine by exploiting cost-reducers to cast the creature for free. With both Defiler of Faith and Oketra's Monument on the battlefield, the white mana cost of Kor Skyfisher is entirely eliminated, allowing you to pay its alternative cost in life instead. Every single time you cast and replay the creature, Defiler of Faith and Oketra's Monument trigger to flood the board with Soldier and Warrior tokens. This endless procession of entering creatures continually feeds Impassioned Orator, guaranteeing infinite life alongside your infinite tokens and enter-the-battlefield triggers.
