Enduring Vitality + Zur, Eternal Schemer + Maelstrom Wanderer + Thermopod

Enduring Vitality

Zur, Eternal Schemer

Maelstrom Wanderer

Thermopod

How it works

1. If Enduring Vitality is not a creature, activate Zur by paying 1, causing Enduring Vitality to become a creature.
2. Activate Enduring Vitality by tapping it, adding .
3. Activate Thermopod's second ability by sacrificing Enduring Vitality, adding .
4. When Enduring Vitality dies, it triggers, returning itself from your graveyard to the battlefield as an enchantment.
5. Repeat.

This clever loop transforms Enduring Vitality into a creature using Zur, Eternal Schemer's animated ability, allowing it to tap for mana before you feed it to Thermopod's sacrifice outlet. Because Enduring Vitality's own death trigger brings it back to the battlefield as an enchantment, you can simply animate it and repeat the cycle to generate endless death triggers and sacrifice counts. Meanwhile, Maelstrom Wanderer ensures that your entire army benefits from haste right out of the gate, keeping the engine primed and ready to go.
