How it works

  1. Cast Mistcutter Hydra for X = 0.
  2. Mistcutter Hydra dies due to having zero toughness.
  3. Yedora triggers, returning it to the battlefield face-down as a Forest land.
  4. Activate that Forest adding G mana.
  5. Activate Primordial Mist by exiling the face-down Mistcutter Hydra, and allowing you to cast it this turn.
  6. Repeat.

This clever loop turns the inherent fragility of Mistcutter Hydra into an engine of endless rebirth, utilizing Yedora, Grave Gardener's static ability to instantly pluck the Hydra from the graveyard and replant it as a fresh Forest land whenever it expires. Once it hits the battlefield face-down, you can tap it for green mana to help fund the engine, then cash it in using Primordial Mist's activated ability to exile the face-down permanent and replay the Hydra for zero mana all over again. Because the Hydra naturally hits the graveyard with zero toughness every single time it is cast for {X} = 0, you can cycle it infinitely to trigger massive storm counts alongside endless landfall and creature death triggers.
