Defiler of Faith + Kor Celebrant + Kor Skyfisher + Grand Arbiter Augustin IV

Defiler of Faith

Kor Celebrant

Kor Skyfisher

Grand Arbiter Augustin IV

How it works

1. Cast Kor Skyfisher by paying 0 and 2 life due to Defiler of Faith and Grand Arbiter Augustin IV.
2. Defiler of Faith triggers, creating a 1/1 Soldier creature token.
3. When the Soldier enters, Kor Celebrant triggers, causing you to gain life.
4. Resolve Kor Skyfisher. When it enters, it and Kor Celebrant trigger.
5. Resolve the Kor Skyfisher trigger, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
6. Resolve the Kor Celebrant trigger, causing you to gain life.
7. Repeat.

This ingenious loop lets you endlessly cast and bounce your own creatures for free, fueled entirely by life payments and cost-reducers. By leveraging Grand Arbiter Augustin IV and Defiler of Faith together, you reduce the mana cost of Kor Skyfisher down to zero, allowing you to pay its cost with life instead while simultaneously generating a 1/1 Soldier token on cast. When that token and the subsequent Kor Skyfisher enter the battlefield, Kor Celebrant triggers repeatedly to pad your life total back up, offsetting the life paid to the Defiler. Finally, Kor Skyfisher's own entry trigger forces you to pick it back up into your hand, ready to be cast all over again for an infinite storm count and endless enters-the-battlefield triggers.
