Nimbleclaw Adept + Ashaya, Soul of the Wild + Ruin Ghost + Kratos, God of War
How it works
- Activate a permanent by tapping it, adding at least .
- Activate Nimbleclaw Adept by tapping it, untapping Ruin Ghost and the permanent.
- Activate Ruin Ghost by paying and tapping it, blinking Nimbleclaw Adept.
- Repeat.
This intricate engine turns your battlefield into a self-sustaining loop by leveraging Ashaya, Soul of the Wild's static ability, which transforms all your nontoken creatures into Forest lands in addition to their other types. Because Nimbleclaw Adept counts as a land, Ruin Ghost can target and blink it with its {W}, {T} ability, instantly resetting the Adept's activation. Meanwhile, Nimbleclaw Adept's tap ability untaps Ruin Ghost and another permanent to generate the white mana needed to fuel the Ghost's activation over and over. Though Kratos, God of War grants haste to all creatures and brings a fierce end-step tax, he mostly watches from the sidelines as this pairing endlessly loops enter-the-battlefield, leave-the-battlefield, and landfall triggers.
