How it works

  1. Cast Kor Skyfisher by paying 0 and 2 life due to Defiler of Faith and Pearl Medallion.
  2. Defiler of Faith triggers, creating a 1/1 Soldier creature token.
  3. When the Soldier enters, Soul's Attendant triggers, causing you to gain life.
  4. Resolve Kor Skyfisher. When it enters, it and Soul's Attendant trigger.
  5. Resolve the Kor Skyfisher trigger, returning it from the battlefield to your hand.
  6. Resolve the Soul's Attendant trigger, causing you to gain life.
  7. Repeat.

This clever loop hinges on the cost-reducing synergy between Pearl Medallion and Defiler of Faith, which entirely removes the mana cost of Kor Skyfisher and lets you cast it for free by paying 2 life instead. Every time the Skyfisher enters the battlefield, its own mandatory trigger forces you to return a permanent to your hand—which happily includes bouncing the very same Kor Skyfisher right back to where it started. Meanwhile, Defiler of Faith capitalizes on each cast by spawning a 1/1 white Soldier creature token, and Soul's Attendant rewards those arriving tokens and creatures by steadily padding your life total.
