  2.  Civilized Scholar // Homicidal Brute in your graveyard.
  3.  Grub and Agatha's Soul Cauldron on the battlefield.

Mana Needed

  1. ({2} magic symbol)  ({U} magic symbol)   available.

Steps

  3. When Glasspool Mimic enters, it triggers, returning Grub, Storied Matriarch from your graveyard to your hand.
  4. Activate Agatha's Soul Cauldron by tapping it and exiling Civilized Scholar from your graveyard, putting a +1/+1 counter on Glasspool Mimic.
  5. Activate Glasspool Mimic using Civilized Scholar's ability by tapping it, causing you to draw a card and discard Grub, Storied Matriarch. Glasspool Mimic will then untap itself and transform, but it will transform again into Grub, Storied Matriarch.
  6. Glasspool Mimic triggers, returning Grub, Storied Matriarch from your graveyard to your hand.
  7. Repeat from step 5.
