How it works

  1. Cast Scurry Oak by paying its mana cost.
  2. When Scurry Oak enters, the effect that adds +1/+1 counters to entering creatures triggers or applies its replacement effect, putting at least one +1/+1 counter on Scurry Oak.
  3. Scurry Oak triggers, creating a creature token.
  4. When the creature token enters, that same effect causes you to place at least one +1/+1 counter on it.
  5. Activate Goblin Bombardment by sacrificing the creature token.
  6. When the creature token dies, Reluctant Role Model triggers, putting at least one +1/+1 counter on Scurry Oak
  7. Repeat steps 3 and 4 once.
  8. Resolve the Goblin Bombardment ability.
  9. Repeat from step 5.

This loop transforms Scurry Oak and Goblin Bombardment into a devastating damage machine by leveraging the counter-redirection engine of Reluctant Role Model. Whenever Scurry Oak spawns a token, sacrificing that token to Goblin Bombardment causes Reluctant Role Model to funnel its counters right back onto the Oak, which instantly triggers the creation of a new token. Because Reluctant Role Model ensures the counters keep cycling through death and rebirth rather than running dry, the entire apparatus feeds itself indefinitely to melt your opponents away.
