Lyla, Holographic Assistant

Phyrexian Altar

Forsaken Miner

Soul of the Harvest

How it works

1. Cast Forsaken Miner by paying .
2. When Forsaken Miner enters, Soul of the Harvest triggers.
3. Holding priority, activate Phyrexian Altar by sacrificing Forsaken Miner, adding .
4. Resolve the Soul of the Harvest trigger, causing you to draw a card.
5. Lyla triggers, targeting a creature an opponent controls.
6. Forsaken Miner triggers, causing you to pay to return Forsaken Miner from your graveyard to the battlefield.
7. Repeat from step 2.
8. Resolve all Lyla triggers.

This clever loop turns the unassuming Forsaken Miner into an endless cycle of sacrifice and resurrection, fueled by the mana from Phyrexian Altar. Every time the Miner returns, Soul of the Harvest catches the creature entering the battlefield to immediately draw you a card, replacing the resource and feeding your engine. That card draw triggers Lyla, Holographic Assistant to hand out +1/+1 counters while effortlessly committing crimes to pay for the Miner's recursion cost.
