How it works

  1. Activate Gaea's Cradle by tapping it, adding at least 3.
  2. Activate Lithatog by sacrificing Gaea's Cradle.
  3. Activate Tayam by paying 3 and removing three counters from creatures you control, causing you to mill three cards and return Gaea's Cradle from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  4. When Gaea's Cradle enters, Mossborn Hydra triggers, doubling the number of +1/+1 counters on it.
  5. Repeat.

This clever loop turns the explosive mana of Gaea's Cradle into a self-sustaining engine by repeatedly sacrificing and resurrecting the legendary land. Lithatog acts as the sacrifice outlet, sending Gaea's Cradle straight to the graveyard so Tayam, Luminous Enigma can bring it right back using counters provided by the ever-growing Mossborn Hydra. Every time the land re-enters, Mossborn Hydra's landfall trigger doubles its +1/+1 counters, giving Tayam an endless supply of fuel to repeat the cycle while generating massive amounts of green mana.
