Sensei's Divining Top + Mystic Forge + Ballad of the Black Flag

Sensei's Divining Top

Mystic Forge

Ballad of the Black Flag

How it works

1. Activate Sensei's Divining Top by tapping it, causing you to draw a card and put Sensei's Divining Top on top of your library.
2. Cast Sensei's Divining Top from the top of your library by paying 0.
3. Repeat

This clever loop turns your library into an endless engine by leveraging Mystic Forge, which lets you cast artifact spells directly from the top of your library while also granting you the X-ray vision to see what's coming. Once you tap Sensei's Divining Top to draw a card and place itself back on top of your library, you can immediately cast it again from the top for free since its mana cost is covered—though should you ever need to dig past an unwanted card or filter your draws, Ballad of the Black Flag's early chapters can help mill away unwanted pieces while its final chapter can even discount your historic spells by {2} if needed. By continuously drawing and replaying the Top, you generate infinite card draw, endless draw triggers, and a near-infinite storm count to overwhelm your opponents.
