Ashaya, Soul of the Wild + Bartolomé del Presidio + Earth Village Ruffians

Ashaya, Soul of the Wild

Bartolomé del Presidio

Earth Village Ruffians

How it works

1. Cast Earth Village Ruffians by paying its mana cost
2. When Earth Village Ruffians enters, its earthbend ability triggers, causing it to earthbend itself as it is a Forest due to Ashaya.
3. Activate Bartolomé del Presidio by sacrificing Earth Village Ruffians
4. When Earth Village Ruffians dies, it triggers, returning itself from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped.
5. When Earth Village Ruffians enters, its earthbend ability triggers, causing it to earthbend itself as it is a Forest due to Ashaya.
6. Resolve the Bartolomé del Presidio ability.
7. Repeat from step 3.

This clever loop turns a modest sacrifice outlet into an engine for infinite triggers by exploiting Ashaya, Soul of the Wild's static ability to turn all your nontoken creatures into Forests. Because Earth Village Ruffians is treated as a land by Ashaya, its own earthbend trigger targets itself, allowing it to return from the graveyard tapped whenever it dies. By feeding Earth Village Ruffians into Bartolomé del Presidio, you can repeatedly sacrifice it to pile up infinite +1/+1 counters on Bartolomé while churning out endless entry, death, and landfall triggers.
