Thornbite Staff + Arcane Teachings + Gift of Doom

Thornbite Staff

Arcane Teachings

Gift of Doom

How it works

1. Activate the creature by tapping it, dealing damage to an opponent's creature.
2. The opponent's creature dies due to deathtouch, triggering the second ability granted by Thornbite Staff, untapping your creature.
3. Repeat until all opponents' creatures die.
4. Repeat each time a creature enters the battlefield under an opponent's control.

This engine transforms any creature into a one-sided board wipe by layering damage-dealing and combat-keyword auras onto an untap mechanic. With Arcane Teachings, your creature gains the ability to tap and ping any target, while Gift of Doom grants it both deathtouch and indestructible so that its damage instantly kills whatever it hits. Crucially, Thornbite Staff equips to the creature and grants it an automated untap trigger whenever *any* creature dies, meaning the kill feeds the loop: every time your targeted ping destroys an opponent's creature, the staff untaps your shooter so it can immediately fire again.
