The 4 combo pieces

What must be in place

An opponent controls a creature with toughness six or less.
You do not control an Army.

How to execute it

  1. Activate That Which Was Taken by paying {4} and tapping it, putting a divinity counter on a creature an opponent controls with toughness six or less.
  2. Activate Fall of Cair Andros by paying {7}{R}, dealing seven damage to the creature that has a divinity counter on it.
  3. Fall of Cair Andros triggers, creating a 0/0 Army and putting at least one +1/+1 counter on it.
  4. When the Army enters the battlefield, Pandemonium triggers.
  5. Holding priority, Activate Thermopod's second ability by sacrificing the Army, adding {R}.
  6. Resolve the Pandemonium trigger, dealing 1 damage to the creature with a divinity counter on it.
  7. Repeat from step 3.
  8. Once you have infinite red mana, with a Pandemonium trigger on the stack, you may use Fall of Cair Andros' ability to deal infinite damage to the creature with a divinity counter on it, thus causing the Army to have infinite +1/+1 counters on it, which causes the Pandemonium trigger to deal infinite damage to any target.
