Lyla, Holographic Assistant + Animation Module + Thermopod + Tresserhorn's Lord, Returned
How it works
- Draw a card.
- Lyla triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on a creature you control.
- Animation Module triggers, causing you to pay 1 to create a 1/1 Servo artifact creature token.
- Activate Thermopod by sacrificing the Servo, adding .
- When the Servo dies, Tresserhorn's Lord triggers, causing you to draw a card.
- Repeat from step 2.
This elegant loop turns a single initial draw into a self-sustaining engine by cycling resources between counters, tokens, and mana. It all hinges on Lyla, Holographic Assistant channeling every drawn card into a +1/+1 counter, which immediately trips Animation Module's reflexive trigger to manufacture a Servo artifact creature token for the low cost of {1}. That freshly minted Servo can then be fed directly to Thermopod to generate the red mana needed to pay Animation Module's fee, while simultaneously triggering Tresserhorn's Lord, Returned to draw you another card. Because Tresserhorn's Lord not only rewards you for the sacrifice by keeping the cards flowing but also anchors the board with its indestructible frame, the entire assembly perpetually feeds itself to endlessly churn out triggers and counters.
