By naming Pirates as the chosen type, Arcane Adaptation acts as the hidden glue that turns this engine into a self-sustaining loop. With that enchantment in play, Presence of Gond lets Coercive Recruiter tap to create an Elf Warrior token, which immediately enters the battlefield as a Pirate. This triggers Coercive Recruiter's ability to untap itself, letting you repeat the tap-to-create-token process endlessly for an infinite number of creature tokens and entering-the-battlefield triggers.
