How it works

  1. Cast Arcbond by paying 2R mana, targeting Bloodthirsty Conqueror.
  2. Invocation of the Founders triggers, copying Arcbond, with the copy targeting another indestructible creature you control.
  3. Resolve both Arcbonds.
  4. Deal damage to Bloodthirsty Conqueror.
  5. Arbond triggers, dealing that much damage to each player and each other creature.
  6. Bloodthirsty Conqueror triggers for each opponent dealt damage, and Arcbond triggers due to the other indestructible creature being dealt damage.
  7. Resolve all Bloodthirsty Conqueror triggers, causing you to gain life.
  8. Resolve the Arcbond trigger, dealing that much damage to each player and each other creature.
  9. Bloodthirsty Conqueror triggers for each opponent dealt damage, and Arcbond triggers due to Bloodthirsty Conqueror being dealt damage.
  10. Resolve all Bloodthirsty Conqueror triggers, causing you to gain life.
  11. Resolve the Arcbond trigger, dealing that much damage to each player and each other creature.
  12. Repeat form step 6.

This explosive loop turns a single instance of damage into an unstoppable, self-sustaining chain reaction by exploiting the brilliant interplay between Bloodthirsty Conqueror and Arcbond. When you initiate the sequence, Invasion of Arcavios ensures you have access to your key spells while doubling up on your casts through Invocation of the Founders. Once Arcbond is cast on an indestructible creature (or the Conqueror itself), any damage dealt triggers a cascading wave where Arcbond damages all players and creatures, which in turn causes Bloodthirsty Conqueror to gain you life whenever opponents lose life. That lifegain and damage cycle continuously re-triggers Arcbond, effortlessly closing out the game through infinite damage.
