The Lunar Whale's attack trigger enables Valley Floodcaller: every time Sensei's Divining Top cycles back to the top of the library and gets recast for the one mana Birds of Paradise provides, Valley Floodcaller untaps Birds and pumps the creature types it cares about. Each loop costs one mana, draws a card, and generates a storm count — the deck empties its library as long as Birds stays untapped and the Whale's condition is live.

How it works

Prerequisites

The Lunar Whale has attacked this turn. Birds of Paradise does not have summoning sickness.

Activate Birds of Paradise by tapping it, adding .
Activate Sensei's Divining Top's second ability by tapping it, causing you to draw a card and put Sensei's Divining Top from the battlefield onto the top of your library.
Cast Sensei's Divining Top from the top of your library by paying .
Valley Floodcaller triggers, giving Birds, Otters, Frogs and Rats you control +1/+1 until end of turn and untapping them.
Repeat.

Result

Infinite card draw; Infinite draw triggers; Near-infinite storm count; Near-infinite power and toughness for certain creatures until end of turn; Near-infinite untap of some creatures you control

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Any mana creature that taps for one and falls under Valley Floodcaller's untap clause — Llanowar Elves does not qualify, but a Frog, Otter, Rat, or Bird that produces one mana fills the Birds of Paradise slot. Once the library is empty, close with Thassa's Oracle or a damage outlet that feeds off the accumulated power — the loop generates the cards, not the kill.
