The 3 combo pieces
What must be in place
There and Back Again has exactly two lore counters on it.
How to execute it
- At the beginning of your precombat main phase, There and Back Again triggers, creating a legendary 6/6 Smaug creature token, and causing you to sacrifice There and Back Again.
- Cast Whim of Volrath with buyback by paying {2}{U}, targeting the Smaug token.
- Orvar's first ability triggers, creating a copy of the Smaug token.
- Put the new Smaug token into your graveyard due to the legend rule.
- When Smaug dies, it triggers, creating fourteen Treasure tokens.
- Resolve Whim of Volrath from step 2, returning it to your hand.
- Activate three Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding {2}{U}.
- Repeat from step 2.
- Once you have infinite colored mana, you may instead target any other permanent(s) you control using Whim of Volrath, to create infinite tokens of them using Orvar.
