Walk me through how the Tayam recursion loop works step by step. I feel like I'm missing a piece.

Oracle

Verdict

The loop hinges on three stacks: counter generators, Tayam's ability, and the recursion targets. The core loop: 1. Put +1/+1 counters on the board via Hardened Scales, Conclave Mentor, or proliferate from Evolution Sage. 2. Activate Tayam: remove three counters, return a permanent of CMC ≤ that number of counters from graveyard to battlefield. 3. Choose a piece that generates more counters or more fodder — Walking Ballista, Devoted Druid, or Conclave Cavalier. The piece the deck is missing: a reliable counter multiplier. Consider slotting Doubling Season or Branching Evolution — both turn each activation into net-positive value.

Suggested add

Doubling Season

How does that interact with my current ramp package?

Oracle

Verdict

Your ramp is already strong — 10 mana dorks plus rocks. Doubling Season amplifies counter payoffs but does nothing for mana. Prioritize it only *after* you've hit the core recursion pieces: Ramunap Excavator, Sun Titan, Eternal Witness. Those three are non-negotiable.
