How it works

  1. Play Dryad Arbor.
  2. When Dryad Arbor enters as an Ally due to Xenograft, Haru triggers, earthbending Dryad Arbor.
  3. Activate Dryad Arbor by tapping it, adding G mana.
  4. Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing Dryad Arbor.
  5. When Dryad Abor dies, Haru triggers, returning Dryad Arbor from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  6. Repeat from step 2.

This clever loop turns a simple land drop into an infinite engine by rewriting the rules of the battlefield. With Xenograft designating every creature you control as an Ally, playing Dryad Arbor causes it to enter the battlefield as an Ally, immediately triggering Haru, Hidden Talent to earthbend it into a creature with built-in recursion. You can tap your animated Dryad Arbor for green mana before feeding it to Ashnod's Altar for a pair of colorless mana. Because Haru, Hidden Talent promptly returns Dryad Arbor to the battlefield when it dies, you can loop this process infinitely to flood your mana pool and trigger every entry and exit effect you could ever want.
