Defiler of Faith + The Wind Crystal + Whitemane Lion + Haliya, Guided by Light

Defiler of Faith

The Wind Crystal

Whitemane Lion

Haliya, Guided by Light

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, Haliya triggers, causing you to gain life.
4. Resolve Whitemane Lion. When it enters, it and Haliya trigger.
5. Resolve the Whitemane Lion trigger, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
6. Resolve the Haliya trigger, causing you to gain life.
7. Repeat.

This ingenious loop relies on a brilliant cost-reduction engine to cast Whitemane Lion for zero mana, repeatedly bouncing itself while generating an endless stream of value. Defiler of Faith and The Wind Crystal work together to slash the Lion's mana cost down to nothing, allowing you to pay life instead while the Defiler simultaneously floods the board with 1/1 Soldier tokens on each iteration. Meanwhile, Haliya, Guided by Light transforms every single entry into a cascading fountain of lifegain, ensuring you not only amass an infinite army and storm count, but also double your life total along the way.
