Bloodthirsty Conqueror + Arcbond + Swarm Intelligence

Bloodthirsty Conqueror

Arcbond

Swarm Intelligence

How it works

1. Cast Arcbond by paying 2, targeting Bloodthirsty Conqueror.
2. Swarm Intelligence 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 kicks off when Swarm Intelligence duplicates Arcbond upon casting, allowing you to wrap both Bloodthirsty Conqueror and another indestructible creature in a web of cascading damage triggers. Once any outside damage touches Bloodthirsty Conqueror, Arcbond turns every resulting ping into a global board-wide blast that hits all players and creatures simultaneously. Thanks to Bloodthirsty Conqueror's passive life-linking ability, every scrap of damage dealt to your opponents immediately converts into life gained, which in turn fuels an infinite, self-sustaining loop of damage and life-draining agony.
