Vizier of Remedies + Thermopod + Wingrattle Scarecrow

Vizier of Remedies

Thermopod

Wingrattle Scarecrow

How it works

1. Activate Thermopod by sacrificing Wingrattle Scarecrow.
2. When Wingrattle Scarecrow dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield without a -1/-1 counter on it due to Vizier of Remedies.
3. Repeat.

This clever loop turns Wingrattle Scarecrow into an infinite mana-generating machine by exploiting the rules of persist and replacement effects. While Wingrattle Scarecrow's natural persist ability would normally bring it back with a -1/-1 counter and fizzle the loop, Vizier of Remedies steps in as a brilliant stabilizer, reducing the counters placed so the Scarecrow returns completely clean every time. Finally, Thermopod acts as both the sacrificial outlet and the engine, converting each iteration of the loop into a steady stream of red mana to fuel your victory.
