How it works

  1. Cast Sensei's Divining Top either from your hand or from the top of your library by paying 1.
  2. Alela triggers, creating a 1/1 Faerie creature token.
  3. Activate Thermopod by sacrificing the Faerie, adding CC.
  4. Activate Sensei's Divining Top's second ability by tapping it, causing you to draw a card and put Sensei's Divining Top on top of your library.
  5. Repeat.

This clever loop turns your library into an endless engine by leveraging Experimental Frenzy to let you cast Sensei's Divining Top right off the top of your deck. Every time that artifact hits the battlefield, Alela, Artful Provocateur rewards your cast with a fresh 1/1 Faerie token to populate your board. You can then immediately feed that token to Thermopod to generate the mana you need, tap Sensei's Divining Top to draw a card and place itself back on top, and repeat the process indefinitely.
