Melira, Sylvok Outcast + Lesser Masticore + Arcbound Ravager

Melira, Sylvok Outcast

Lesser Masticore

Arcbound Ravager

How it works

1. Activate Arcbound Ravager by sacrificing Lesser Masticore.
2. When Lesser Masticore dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield without a -1/-1 counter on it due to Melira.
3. Resolve the Arcbound Ravager ability.
4. Repeat.

This engine is a masterclass in turning a card's own drawback into an infinite feedback loop, anchored entirely by Melira, Sylvok Outcast and her passive immunity to -1/-1 counters. Because Melira prevents these counters from ever being placed, Lesser Masticore's persist ability triggers every single time it dies without ever locking itself out of returning to the battlefield. Meanwhile, Arcbound Ravager provides the crucial sacrifice outlet that sends the Masticore to the graveyard while growing larger with every iteration by stacking up its modular trigger.
