Defiler of Faith + Kor Skyfisher + Grand Arbiter Augustin IV + Bogwater Lumaret

Defiler of Faith

Kor Skyfisher

Grand Arbiter Augustin IV

Bogwater Lumaret

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, Bogwater Lumaret triggers, causing you to gain life.
4. Resolve Kor Skyfisher. When it enters, it and Bogwater Lumaret trigger.
5. Resolve the Kor Skyfisher trigger, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
6. Resolve the Bogwater Lumaret trigger, causing you to gain life.
7. Repeat.

This clever loop transforms Kor Skyfisher into a self-sustaining engine by completely removing its mana cost. Grand Arbiter Augustin IV provides the first piece of cost reduction, while Defiler of Faith handles the rest by letting you pay 2 life instead of {W}, allowing you to cast the Skyfisher for free. When Kor Skyfisher hits the battlefield, its mandatory self-bounce trigger returns it right back to your hand so you can cast it again. Meanwhile, Bogwater Lumaret keeps your life total stable by triggering off every single creature entry—including the 1/1 Soldier tokens pumped out by Defiler of Faith's cast trigger—netting you infinite tokens, life, and storm count.
