How it works

  1. Cast Traveling Plague by paying 3B manaB mana, attaching it to another creature you control.
  2. When Traveling Plague enters, Ghostly Dancers triggers, creating a creature token.
  3. Activate Shilgengar by sacrificing the creature Traveling Plague is attached to.
  4. When the creature dies, Traveling Plague triggers, returning itself from your graveyard to the battlefield attached to the token created in step 2.
  5. When Traveling Plague enters, Ghostly Dancers triggers, creating a creature token.
  6. Resolve the Shilgengar ability.
  7. Repeat from step 3.

This loop uses Traveling Plague's clever recursion trigger to endlessly bounce between your creatures, repeatedly entering the battlefield to feed Ghostly Dancers's eerie ability for an endless army of flying Spirit tokens. Shilgengar, Sire of Famine powers the engine by devouring the enchanted creature for Blood tokens, while his massive revival ability waits in the wings once you've generated enough resources. As Traveling Plague falls off a dying creature, its own triggered ability scoops it right back up from the graveyard onto a fresh target, keeping the gruesome cycle spinning infinitely.
