Goldvein Hydra + Enduring Renewal + Pitiless Plunderer

Goldvein Hydra

Enduring Renewal

Pitiless Plunderer

How it works

1. Cast Goldvein Hydra by paying .
2. Goldvein Hydra enters the battlefield and dies as a state-based action due to having 0 toughness.
3. Pitiless Plunderer and Enduring Renewal trigger.
4. Resolve the Pitiless Plunderer trigger, creating a Treasure token.
5. Resolve the Enduring Renewal trigger, returning Goldvein Hydra from your graveyard to your hand.
6. Activate the Treasure by tapping and sacrificing it, adding .
7. Repeat.

This ingenious loop relies on casting Goldvein Hydra for zero mana, allowing it to immediately succumb to state-based actions as it enters the battlefield with zero toughness. That tragic trip to the graveyard triggers Enduring Renewal, which gracefully scoops the Hydra right back up to your hand instead of letting it rest. Meanwhile, Pitiless Plunderer watches the creature perish and eagerly manufactures a Treasure token, funding the green mana needed to recast the Hydra all over again.
