Zirda, the Dawnwaker cuts Sunforger's unattach cost and Barkform Harvester's activation cost, making the reequip and graveyard recycling cheap enough to chain indefinitely. Jeska's Will generates the red mana to fund the loop; Unexpected Windfall refuels the hand and creates the Treasures that pay for Barkform Harvester to shuffle both spells back. The prerequisite — an opponent holding six or more cards — is the live condition, and in a four-player pod that's almost always true by turn four.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

The combo lives or dies on Zirda staying in play; without the cost reduction, Sunforger's

activations and Barkform Harvester's

taps outpace the mana the loop returns. Sunforger already fetches the instants, so the kill converts naturally into Grapeshot or any instant-speed damage spell in the 98 — Deflecting Palm or Swords to Plowshares don't close the game, so dedicate at least one red finisher to the pile before running this line.
