Saheeli's Artistry + Ardent Elementalist + Great Whale

Saheeli's Artistry

Ardent Elementalist

Great Whale

How it works

1. Activate up to seven lands by tapping them, adding at least 4.
2. Cast Saheeli's Artistry by paying 4, creating a token copy of Great Whale that is an artifact.
3. When the Great Whale token enters, it triggers, untapping up to seven lands.
4. Cast Ardent Elementalist by paying its mana cost.
5. When Ardent Elementalist enters, it triggers, returning Saheeli's Artistry from your graveyard to your hand.
6. Activate up to seven lands by tapping them, adding at least 4.
7. Cast Saheeli's Artistry by paying 4, creating a token copy of Ardent Elementalist and the Great Whale token.
8. When the Ardent Elementalist and Great Whale tokens enter, they trigger.
9. Resolve the Ardent Elementalist token's trigger, returning Saheeli's Artistry from your graveyard to your hand.
10. Resolve the Great Whale token's trigger, untapping up to seven lands.
11. Repeat from step 6.

This loop relies on recycling **Saheeli's Artistry** over and over by pairing its ability to copy creatures with the recursive value of **Ardent Elementalist**, which returns that very spell from your graveyard to your hand upon entering the battlefield. Meanwhile, the inclusion of **Great Whale**—and the artifact copies you make of it—ensures that every iteration of the combo generates a massive influx of untapped mana from your lands to pay for the sorcery and the Elementalist again. Because **Saheeli's Artistry** allows you to double up on your targets once you have enough mana, you can rapidly compound your token army with both a fresh **Great Whale** and an **Ardent Elementalist** to sustain an endless, self-feeding engine.
