Mortuary + Fanatical Firebrand + Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER // Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel + Gwenom, Remorseless

Mortuary

Fanatical Firebrand

Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER // Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel

Gwenom, Remorseless

How it works

1. Activate Fanatical Firebrand by tapping and sacrificing it.
2. When Fanatical Firebrand dies, Mortuary and Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER // Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel trigger.
3. Resolve the Mortuary trigger, putting Fanatical Firebrand from your graveyard onto the top of your library.
4. Resolve the Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER // Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel trigger, causing you to gain 1 life and each opponent to lose 1 life.
5. Resolve the Fanatical Firebrand ability.
6. Cast Fanatical Firebrand from the top of your library by paying 1 life.
7. Repeat.

This ingenious loop relies on Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER // Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel to act as your win condition and sacrifice outlet, draining your opponent's life total every time a creature perishes. Whenever you sacrifice Fanatical Firebrand to ping a target, Mortuary steps in to neatly bypass the graveyard entirely, recycling the goblin straight back to the top of your library instead of letting it rest. From there, Gwenom, Remorseless grants you the crucial ability to play creatures directly from the top of your library, letting you bypass traditional mana costs by paying life instead—a cost easily offset by Sephiroth's life-draining triggers.
