Shorikai, Genesis Engine + Intruder Alarm

Shorikai, Genesis Engine

Intruder Alarm

How it works

1. Cause Shorikai to become a creature.
2. Activate a creature by tapping it, adding at least 1.
3. Activate Shorikai by paying 1 and tapping it, causing you to draw two cards, discard a card, and create a 1/1 Pilot creature token.
4. When the Pilot enters the battlefield, Intruder Alarm triggers, untapping all creatures.
5. Repeat from step 2.

This ingenious loop turns Shorikai, Genesis Engine into a relentless card-draw and token-generating machine by exploiting the global untap trigger of Intruder Alarm. Every time Shorikai's activated ability taps to draw cards and birth a fresh 1/1 Pilot, that new creature's entry triggers Intruder Alarm to untap all creatures, resetting Shorikai and any mana-producing creatures you control. By filtering through your deck and flooding the board with pilots, you easily feed a continuous cycle of activation costs and untaps to fuel your victory.
