What must be in place

You've cast Jyoti from the command zone at least three times this game.

How to execute it

  1. Cast Jyoti from the command zone by paying eight {E} (if able) due to Nissa, or by paying {2}{G}{U} otherwise, plus its commander tax.
  2. When Jyoti enters, it triggers, creating a 1/1 Forest Dryad creature token for each time you've cast Jyoti from the command zone this game.
  3. When the Forest Dryads enter, Nissa triggers that many times, causing you to get {E}{E} for each Forest Dryad.
  4. Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing Jyoti, adding {C}{C}.
  5. Choose to return Jyoti to the command zone from your graveyard.
  6. Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing all but one Forest Dryad that was created in step 2, adding {C}{C} for each Forest Dryad sacrificed.
  7. Repeat
