This self-sustaining loop relies on Mortuary's clever trigger to constantly intercept Matter Reshaper right as it dies, setting it up as the exact card revealed from the top of your library to return straight to the battlefield. Thermopod acts as the engine's catalyst and outlet, converting each iteration of this sacrifice cycle into a steady stream of red mana while fueling its own snow-activated requirements. Because Matter Reshaper costs 3 mana or less, it effortlessly qualifies to slip right back past its own death trigger and onto the board, letting you repeat the entire process indefinitely.
