How it works

  1. Gain life.
  2. Spider-Man triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on Herd Baloth.
  3. Herd Baloth triggers, creating a creature token.
  4. When the creature token enters the battlefield, Distinguished Conjurer triggers, causing you to gain 1 life.
  5. Repeat from step 2.

This charming loop is set into motion the moment you gain life, which prompts Spider-Man, Peter Parker to grant a +1/+1 counter to Herd Baloth. That sudden burst of power makes Herd Baloth trigger its ability to stampede out a 4/4 green Beast creature token, which in turn causes Distinguished Conjurer to welcome the newcomer with a life-gaining trigger. Because that life gain immediately feeds right back into Spider-Man, Peter Parker's trigger, you have a self-sustaining engine capable of generating infinite tokens, lifegain, and counters. While Distinguished Conjurer's activated ability isn't even needed once the loop is running, its passive life-linking is the vital bridge that ties the whole ecosystem together!
