How it works

  1. Activate Farmstead Gleaner by tapping it, adding 2 and causing the next spell you cast to have cascade.
  2. Activate Farmstead Gleaner by paying 2 and untapping it, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
  3. Repeat.
  4. Optionally, you may cast any spell to get infinite cascade triggers based off the mana value of that spell.

This charming little engine starts by enchanting a mana-producing permanent with Bigger on the Inside, granting it a lucrative tap ability that generates both mana and a cascade trigger. Farmstead Gleaner fits right into this setup because its untap symbol ability (`{Q}`) lets it spend that very mana to untap itself, simultaneously growing larger with a +1/+1 counter and resetting for another iteration. By looping these activations back and forth, you achieve infinite +1/+1 counters while repeatedly feeding the enchanted permanent's ability to chain endless cascade triggers into your spells.
