This loop turns a modest swarm of bugs into an infinite mana engine by exploiting the free attachment power of Puresteel Paladin. With the metalcraft condition met, Lotus Ring can be equipped for zero mana to the token produced by Ant Queen, letting you immediately tap and sacrifice that insect to the Ring's own mana ability. Fervor ensures that each newly birthed token doesn't suffer from summoning sickness before you can sacrifice it, fueling the cycle indefinitely and letting you generate as many hasty insects and colored mana as your heart desires.
