How it works

  1. Activate Emiel the Blessed by paying 3, blinking Jewel Thief.
  2. When Jewel Thief enters the battlefield, it triggers once, and Preston triggers twice.
  3. Resolve the Jewel Thief trigger, creating a Treasure token.
  4. Resolve the first Preston trigger, creating a token copy of Jewel Thief that is a 0/1 Illusion.
  5. When the Jewel Thief token enters the battlefield, it triggers, creating a Treasure token.
  6. Repeat from step 4 for the remaining Preston trigger.
  7. Activate three Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding 3.
  8. Repeat.

By looping **Emiel the Blessed** to constantly blink **Jewel Thief**, you can repeatedly generate entering-the-battlefield triggers that fuel an ever-growing army of mana-producing cats. **Preston, the Vanisher** turns every uncast reincarnation of the Thief into a 0/1 Illusion copy that contributes its own Treasure token upon arrival, ensuring you have more than enough artifacts to sacrifice for the mana needed to keep Emiel's ability going. Meanwhile, **Delney, Streetwise Lookout** quietly doubles all of those entering-the-battlefield triggers because the creatures involved have a power of 2 or less, letting the engine scale exponentially into an infinite loop of creature tokens and enters-the-battlefield effects.
