Warren Soultrader + Mm'menon, Uthros Exile + Overgrowth Elemental

Warren Soultrader

Mm'menon, Uthros Exile

Overgrowth Elemental

How it works

1. Activate Warren Soultrader by paying 1 life and sacrificing the persist creature.
2. When the persist creature dies, its persist ability and Overgrowth Elemental trigger.
3. Resolve the persist trigger, returning the persist creature from your graveyard to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.
4. Resolve the Overgrowth Elemental trigger, causing you to gain 1 life.
5. Resolve the Warren Soultrader ability, creating a Treasure token.
6. When the Treasure enters, Mm'menon triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on the persist creature.
7. Repeat.

This clever loop is fueled by Warren Soultrader, which lets you sacrifice creatures to generate Treasure tokens and offset the life cost using Overgrowth Elemental's life-gaining death trigger. As those Treasures enter the battlefield, Mm'menon, Uthros Exile triggers to distribute +1/+1 counters that neatly cancel out the -1/-1 counters on your returning persist creatures. Overgrowth Elemental also grows larger with each death, turning a simple sacrifice engine into an overwhelming display of compounding value.
