Lullmage Mentor

Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation // Temple of Civilization

Anointed Procession

Exalted Sunborn

How it works

1. Whenever an opponent casts a spell, activate Lullmage Mentor by tapping seven untapped Merfolk, countering that spell.
2. Lullmage Mentor triggers, creating a total of twelve 1/1 Merfolk creature tokens.
3. Repeat.

This spell-locking engine sets up an overwhelming board presence by weaponizing Lullmage Mentor's ability to counter opposing spells. Whenever you tap down seven Merfolk to stop an opponent, Lullmage Mentor's trigger fires off, but the combined replacement effects of Ojer Taq, Deepest Foundation, Anointed Procession, and Exalted Sunborn radically amplify the payout—turning a single token creation into a massive wave of twelve new Merfolk. Because you easily replenish well past the seven creatures needed to pay the cost, you can repeat this process indefinitely to completely lock opponents out of resolving spells while swamping the battlefield with an endless army of tokens.
