Emiel the Blessed + Training Grounds + Kalain, Reclusive Painter

Emiel the Blessed

Training Grounds

Kalain, Reclusive Painter

How it works

1. Activate Emiel the Blessed by paying 1, blinking Kalain.
2. When Kalain enters the battlefield, it triggers, creating a Treasure artifact token.
3. Activate the Treasure by tapping and sacrificing it, adding 1.
4. Repeat.

This clever little loop turns Training Grounds into the ultimate discount engine, reducing Emiel the Blessed's blink activation down to a mere single generic mana. When you blink Kalain, Reclusive Painter, its entrance triggers the creation of a fresh Treasure token that you can immediately crack to pay for Emiel's ability, sustaining the flicker indefinitely. Because Kalain is constantly re-entering the battlefield, you generate an unbounded number of leaves-the-battlefield and enters-the-battlefield triggers to fuel whatever payoff you desire.
