How it works

  1. Activate Woe Strider by sacrificing Nether Traitor.
  2. Activate Woe Strider by sacrificing another creature.
  3. When the creature dies, Nether Traitor triggers, causing you to pay B mana to return Nether Traitor from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  4. Kheru Goldkeeper and Garrison Excavator triggers, creating a Treasure token and a creature token
  5. Resolve the Woe Strider ability.
  6. Activate the Treasure by tapping and sacrificing it, adding B mana.
  7. Repeat.

This engine transforms a simple sacrifice loop into a ceaseless factory of value by leveraging the graveyard as a revolving door. Woe Strider acts as the sacrificial outlet, letting you feed your creatures into the graveyard while utilizing its scry ability to smooth your draws. Whenever a creature meets its end, Nether Traitor's triggered ability lets you immediately pay {B} to bring it right back to the battlefield, constantly feeding the graveyard and triggering the loop. Meanwhile, Kheru Goldkeeper and Garrison Excavator sit quietly watching your graveyard, automatically spitting out a Treasure token and a 2/2 Spirit token every single time cards leave your graveyard. By sacrificing the newly minted Treasure for the black mana needed to revive Nether Traitor, the entire loop becomes self-sustaining and endlessly repeatable.
