- Legendary Creature — Human Noble VillainB
Copy engine: one card makes a copy of a creature every turn, and the other's enter-the-battlefield effect rewards each copy. Real, repeatable value — the partner can't untap or re-enter the copier, so it never goes infinite.
- Legendary Planeswalker — ChandraR
Copy engine: one card makes a copy of a creature every turn, and the other's enter-the-battlefield effect rewards each copy. Real, repeatable value — the partner can't untap or re-enter the copier, so it never goes infinite.
- Legendary Creature — Human WarlockBRU

- Creature — Spirit // Enchantment — AuraU
One-shot copy enabler: a card enters as a copy of another (Phantasmal Image, Body Double, Phyrexian Metamorph), firing the partner's substantive ETB once. Not a repeating chain — fires once on entry — but valuable when the partner's ETB is combo-grade (graveyard reanimator, mana doubler, etc.).
- Legendary Creature — Human WizardB
Recursion engine: one card can reanimate repeatedly (an activated ability), and the other is a creature worth bringing back again and again. Real, repeatable value — not an infinite loop on its own.
