How it works

  1. Activate Lightning Greaves' equip ability by paying 0, attaching it to Llanowar Druid.
  2. Activate five Forests by tapping them, adding G manaG manaG manaG manaG mana.
  3. Activate Llanowar Druid by tapping and sacrificing it.
  4. Llanowar Druid dies, triggering Nim Deathmantle, causing you to pay 4 to return Llanowar Druid from your graveyard to the battlefield, and attach Nim Deathmantle to it.
  5. Resolve the Llanowar Druid ability from step 3, untapping all Forests.
  6. Repeat.

This clever loop turns your own sacrifice into a self-sustaining engine by letting Llanowar Druid constantly fuel its own resurrection. By wrapping the Druid in Lightning Greaves, it gains haste to start tapping immediately, while Nim Deathmantle lurks in the background to catch it the moment it hits the graveyard. Each time you sacrifice the Druid to untap your Forests, you generate a surplus of green mana—more than enough to pay the Deathmantle's revival fee and keep the cycle spinning infinitely.
