Iraxxa, Empress of Mars + Squee, the Immortal + Thermopod + Duskwatch Recruiter // Krallenhorde Howler
How it works
- Cast Squee from your graveyard or from exile by paying .
- Iraxxa triggers, creating a 2/2 Alien Warrior creature token.
- Activate Thermopod's second ability twice by sacrificing Squee and the Alien Warrior, adding .
- Repeat.
This clever loop turns graveyard recursion into an explosive engine by taking advantage of Squee, the Immortal's unique ability to be cast directly from the graveyard or exile. Because you are casting a spell from a zone other than your hand, Iraxxa, Empress of Mars triggers to reward you with a steady stream of 2/2 Alien Warrior tokens. Meanwhile, Thermopod provides the necessary sacrifice outlet to convert both Squee and your newly minted tokens into the red mana needed to keep casting Squee over and over again. Though Duskwatch Recruiter (and its back face, Krallenhorde Howler) sits on the battlefield quietly reducing the cost of your creature spells, the core of the combo runs entirely on this self-sustaining loop to generate infinite deaths, enters-the-battlefield triggers, and storm count.
