Tarrian's Soulcleaver + Herd Baloth + Woe Strider

Tarrian's Soulcleaver

Herd Baloth

Woe Strider

How it works

1. Put a +1/+1 counter on Herd Baloth.
2. Herd Baloth triggers, creating a 4/4 Beast creature token.
3. Activate Woe Strider by sacrificing the Beast.
4. When the Beast dies, Tarrian's Soulcleaver triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on Herd Baloth.
5. Herd Baloth triggers, creating a 4/4 Beast creature token.
6. Resolve the Woe Strider ability, causing you to scry 1.
7. Repeat from step 3.

This clever loop centers around Herd Baloth, which reacts to any influx of +1/+1 counters by spawning a 4/4 Beast creature token. To keep that engine running, Woe Strider provides a reliable sacrifice outlet for those newly minted Beasts while letting you filter your draws with its repeatable scry. Meanwhile, Tarrian's Soulcleaver acts as the crucial bridge by turning every creature death into a fresh +1/+1 counter placed right back onto the Herd Baloth, seamlessly feeding the trigger back into itself.
