How it works

  1. Cast any card by paying its mana cost, or wait for an opponent to cast one.
  2. Holding priority, cast Unsubstantiate by paying 1U mana, targeting that spell.
  3. Swarm Intelligence and Storm-Kiln Artist trigger.
  4. Resolve the Storm-Kiln Artist trigger, creating a Treasure token.
  5. Resolve the Swarm Intelligence trigger, copying Unsubstantiate, with the copy targeting the original Unsubstantiate.
  6. Storm-Kiln Artist triggers, creating a Treasure token.
  7. Resolve the copy of Unsubstantiate, returning the original Unsubstantiate to your hand.
  8. Holding priority, activate the Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding 1U mana.
  9. Repeat from step 2.

This mesmerizing loop turns a humble bounce spell into an infinite engine, anchored by Swarm Intelligence which continuously copies every instant or sorcery you cast. As you bounce and recast Unsubstantiate, Storm-Kiln Artist acts as your primary catalyst, weaponizing its magecraft ability to mint a constant supply of Treasure tokens every time a spell is cast or copied. Sacrificing these Treasures easily refunds the mana needed to keep the cycle spinning, driving up your storm count and generating infinite artifact triggers along the way.
