Drafna, Founder of Lat-Nam + Manifold Key + Urza, Lord Protector + Gilded Lotus

Drafna, Founder of Lat-Nam

Manifold Key

Urza, Lord Protector

Gilded Lotus

How it works

1. Activate Gilded Lotus by tapping it, adding .
2. Activate Manifold Key by paying 1 and tapping it, untapping Gilded Lotus.
3. Activate Drafna's first ability by paying 1, returning Manifold Key from the battlefield to your hand.
4. Cast Manifold Key by paying 0.
5. Repeat.

This clever loop turns Gilded Lotus and Manifold Key into an infinite mana and storm engine by exploiting Drafna, Founder of Lat-Nam as a reusable bounce outlet. With Urza, Lord Protector providing a crucial cost reduction that makes recastable artifacts much cheaper, Gilded Lotus's massive three-mana generation easily covers the activation costs required to keep the cycle spinning. By bouncing and replaying Manifold Key over and over, you continuously untap Gilded Lotus to fuel Drafna's ability and rack up endless artifact enters-the-battlefield and leaves-the-battlefield triggers.
