Invasion of Amonkhet // Lazotep Convert + Ojer Pakpatiq, Deepest Epoch // Temple of Cyclical Time + Thermopod

Invasion of Amonkhet // Lazotep Convert

Ojer Pakpatiq, Deepest Epoch // Temple of Cyclical Time

Thermopod

How it works

1. Defeat Invasion of Amonkhet
2. Invasion of Amonkhet triggers, causing you to exile it, and return it to the battlefield transformed as Lazotep Convert.
3. Choose to have Lazotep Convert enter the battlefield as a copy of Ojer Pakpatiq that is a 4/4 Zombie.
4. Activate Thermopod's second ability by sacrificing Lazotep Convert, adding .
5. When Lazotep Convert dies, it triggers, causing you to exile it, and return it to the battlefield transformed as Lazotep Convert.
6. Choose to have Lazotep Convert enter the battlefield as a copy of Ojer Pakpatiq that is a 4/4 Zombie.
7. Repeat from step 4.

This clever loop centers on the dynamic between Thermopod and Invasion of Amonkhet, whose back face, Lazotep Convert, can enter the battlefield as a copy of any creature in a graveyard. By choosing to copy Ojer Pakpatiq, Deepest Epoch, the clone ensures that whenever it subsequently dies, its own death trigger returns it directly to the battlefield as Lazotep Convert all over again. Thermopod provides the necessary sacrifice outlet to fuel this cycle, turning each recursive trip into an abundant supply of red mana while generating endless enter-the-battlefield and death triggers.
