This ingenious loop creates a perpetual engine of sacrifice and recursion by trading artifact creatures back and forth from the graveyard. Thermopod acts as your primary engine, turning any sacrificed creature into the red mana needed to recast your threats, while Helm of Awakening greases the wheels by making those artifact creature spells cheaper to deploy. As Workshop Assistant and Junk Diver take turns hitting the graveyard and returning one another to your hand, Anax, Hardened in the Forge watches over the carnage and rewards you with a steady stream of Satyr tokens to feed right back into the fire.
