How it works

  1. Cast Whispers of the Muse by paying U mana due to Sami.
  2. Namor triggers, creating a 1/1 Merfolk creature token.
  3. Resolve Whispers of the Muse.
  4. Activate Phyrexian Altar by sacrificing the Merfolk, adding U mana.
  5. Repeat.

This clever engine turns a simple instant into a self-sustaining loop by manipulating spell costs and token generation. Thanks to Sami, Wildcat Captain providing affinity for artifacts, Whispers of the Muse can be cast for just its single blue mana. When you cast it, Namor the Sub-Mariner triggers to create a 1/1 blue Merfolk token, which you immediately feed into Phyrexian Altar to generate the exact mana needed to cast the spell again. Whispers of the Muse resolves, draws you a card, and leaves you ready to repeat the entire cycle for infinite card draw and near-infinite sacrifices.
