Yedora, Grave Gardener + Ashnod's Altar + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth + Kormus Bell
4-card combo · G
Verdict
Yes — this 4-card loop converts a single nontoken creature into infinite mana and infinite triggers through a land-that-is-also-a-creature recursion engine.

Yedora, Grave Gardener returns each dying nontoken creature to the battlefield face down as a Forest. Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth makes every land a Swamp, and Kormus Bell turns every Swamp into a 1/1 creature — so Yedora's Forest immediately becomes a creature again, ready to be sacrificed back to Ashnod's Altar for two colorless and restart the loop. The pieces slot naturally into any green good-stuff Commander shell built around sacrifice and landfall, with Yedora as the commander holding the engine together.
Recipe
How it works
01
Prerequisites
You control at least one additional nontoken creature.
02
Steps
- Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing another nontoken creature you control, adding
. - When the creature dies, Yedora triggers, returning the creature from your graveyard to the battlefield face down as a Forest land and as a 1/1 Swamp creature due to Kormus Bell and Urborg.
- Repeat.
03
Result
Infinite colorless mana; Infinite death triggers; Infinite ETB; Infinite landfall triggers; Infinite LTB; Infinite sacrifice triggers
Variations
Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines
Heartstone or Training Grounds reduces the Altar activation cost in decks running activated-ability synergies, but Ashnod's Altar needs no reduction here — the two colorless it generates each loop is the entire fuel source. For the kill, pipe the infinite colorless into Walking Ballista or use Altar of Dementia to mill the table; the engine also fires infinite landfall triggers, so Retreat to Hagra or Ob Nixilis, the Unshackled close the game without touching the mana at all.
