Defiler of Faith + The Wind Crystal + Whitemane Lion + Case of the Uneaten Feast

Defiler of Faith

The Wind Crystal

Whitemane Lion

Case of the Uneaten Feast

How it works

1. Cast Whitemane Lion by paying 0 and 2 life due to Defiler of Faith and The Wind Crystal.
2. Defiler of Faith triggers, creating a 1/1 Soldier creature token.
3. When the Soldier enters, Case of the Uneaten Feast triggers, causing you to gain life.
4. Resolve Whitemane Lion. When it enters, it and Case of the Uneaten Feast trigger.
5. Resolve the Whitemane Lion trigger, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
6. Resolve the Case of the Uneaten Feast trigger, causing you to gain life.
7. Repeat.

This charming loop turns a humble feline into an endless engine of creation and vitality by leveraging significant cost-reduction and life-doubling mechanics. Thanks to the passive cost-reduction of both Defiler of Faith and The Wind Crystal, Whitemane Lion can be cast completely free of mana, requiring only a small payment of life that is easily offset by the life-doubling effect. Every time the Lion leaps onto the battlefield, Defiler of Faith triggers to forge a 1/1 white Soldier token, which in turn triggers Case of the Uneaten Feast to flood your life total with health. The Lion's own entry triggers its requirement to return a creature to your hand, allowing you to scoop it right back up to your grip and repeat the entire process indefinitely.
