How it works

  1. Cast Bladewing's Thrall by paying 2B manaB mana.
  2. When Bladewing's Thrall enters, Nesting Dragon triggers, as Bladewing's Thrall is a land due to Ashaya.
  3. Holding priority, activate Trenching Steed by sacrificing Bladewing's Thrall.
  4. Resolve the Nesting Dragon trigger, creating a 0/2 Dragon Egg creature token.
  5. When the Dragon Egg enters, Bladewing's Thrall triggers, returning itself from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  6. Repeat from step 2.

This elegant loop transforms a humble self-sacrificing cycle into an infinite engine by turning your entire team into lands. With Ashaya, Soul of the Wild on the battlefield, Bladewing's Thrall counts as a land, allowing its own entrance to trigger Nesting Dragon's landfall ability and immediately produce a Dragon Egg. You then sacrifice the Thrall to Trenching Steed to fuel its toughness pump; because the Egg is a Dragon, it acts as a beacon that triggers Bladewing's Thrall to resurrect itself from the graveyard. This endless recursion effortlessly generates an arbitrary number of death triggers, sacrifices, and flying Dragon tokens to overwhelm your opponents.
