Mary Read and Anne Bonny + Gilded Assault Cart + Mondrak, Glory Dominus + Hardened Academic

Mary Read and Anne Bonny

Gilded Assault Cart

Mondrak, Glory Dominus

Hardened Academic

How it works

1. Activate Hardened Academic by discarding Gilded Assault Cart.
2. Mary Read and Anne Bonny triggers, creating two tapped Treasure tokens.
3. Resolve the Hardened Academic ability.
4. Activate Gilded Assault Cart by sacrificing two Treasures, returning Gilded Assault Cart from your graveyard to your hand.
5. Repeat.

This clever loop turns the self-discard outlet on Hardened Academic into an engine for endless recycling. By discarding Gilded Assault Cart to fuel Hardened Academic, you trigger Mary Read and Anne Bonny to churn out Treasure tokens. Thanks to Mondrak, Glory Dominus doubling those token generation events, you easily amass the resources needed to cash in Gilded Assault Cart's ability from the graveyard, returning it right back to your hand so the cycle can start anew.
