How it works

  1. Activate Tortured Existence by paying B mana and discarding Dryad Arbor.
  2. Green Goblin's second ability triggers, creating two tapped Treasure tokens.
  3. When the Treasures enters the battlefield, Amulet of Vigor triggers twice, untapping the Treasures.
  4. Resolve the Tortured Existence ability, returning another creature card from your graveyard to your hand.
  5. Activate two Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding B manaB mana.
  6. Activate Tortured Existence by paying B mana and discarding a creature card.
  7. Green Goblin's first ability triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on a Goblin you control.
  8. Resolve the Tortured Existence ability, returning Dryad Arbor from your graveyard to your hand.
  9. Repeat.

This clever engine loops creature cards through your graveyard using Tortured Existence as the recurring cost, feeding the triggers of Green Goblin, Nemesis to pump your board with +1/+1 counters and generate mana. While discarding a land like Dryad Arbor creates tapped Treasure tokens that are instantly straightened out by Amulet of Vigor's untap trigger, Exalted Sunborn ensures those token-generation events double in efficiency. Every iteration of this cycle refuels your hand and grows your army, turning a simple graveyard swap into a relentless compounding loop.
