Yawgmoth, Thran Physician + Scurry Oak + Daxos, Blessed by the Sun

Yawgmoth, Thran Physician

Scurry Oak

Daxos, Blessed by the Sun

How it works

1. Cast Yawgmoth by paying 2.
2. When Yawgmoth enters the battlefield, Daxos and Scurry Oak's evolve ability trigger.
3. Holding priority, activate Yawgmoth by paying 1 life and sacrificing a creature.
4. When the creature dies, Daxos triggers, causing you to gain 1 life.
5. Resolve the Yawgmoth ability, putting a -1/-1 counter on Scurry Oak and causing you to draw a card.
6. Resolve the Daxos trigger, causing you to gain 1 life.
7. Resolve the Scurry Oak trigger, putting a +1/+1 counter on it, triggering Scurry Oak's second ability.
8. Holding priority, activate Yawgmoth by paying 1 life and sacrificing a creature.
9. When the creature dies, Daxos triggers, causing you to gain 1 life.
10. Resolve the Yawgmoth ability, putting a -1/-1 counter on Scurry Oak and causing you to draw a card.
11. Resolve the Scurry Oak trigger, creating a 1/1 Squirrel creature token.
12. When the Squirrel enters the battlefield, Daxos and Scurry Oak's evolve ability trigger.
13. Repeat from step 6.

This delightful loop turns the humble Scurry Oak into an endless engine of life and cardboard by feeding its offspring directly to Yawgmoth, Thran Physician. As the Oak alternates between receiving -1/-1 counters from Yawgmoth and spawning Squirrel tokens that trigger its own growth, Daxos, Blessed by the Sun quietly stabilizes your life total, completely offsetting the life payments required to keep Yawgmoth's sacrifice ability humming. Because the -1/-1 and +1/+1 counters cancel each other out on Scurry Oak, the creature never perishes to the counters, allowing you to draw through your entire deck while generating an endless stream of sacrifices, enters-the-battlefield, and death triggers.
