Arena Bar × Fiora, Worthy — a free ready every turn, aimed only at exhausted bodies

2 cards · body + order · verified

Pieces

• Arena Bar ×1 OGN-124 · engine · body

  Exhaust: Buff an exhausted friendly unit. (If it doesn't have a buff, it gets a +1 Might buff.)

• Fiora, Worthy ×1 SFD-180 · payoff · order

  When a unit you control becomes [Mighty], you may pay 1 Order Power to ready it. (A unit is Mighty while it has 5+ Might.)

Payoff

Deck

• Legend domains must cover Body and Order — OGN-269 The Boss, OGS-023 Might of Demacia, SFD-205 Grand Duelist, UNL-203 Keeper of the Hammer, VEN-153 Matriarch of War.

Prerequisites

• THE BAR IS THE ONLY BUFF SOURCE IN THE POOL THAT NAMES AN EXHAUSTED TARGET, which is exactly the target Fiora wants: readying a unit that is already ready does nothing (415.1 marks a Game Object already on the board), so every other buff source in fiora-buff-ready's 98-partner list has to be aimed by hand at something spent. Arena Bar cannot be aimed anywhere else.
• AND IT COSTS NOTHING. Its cost is its own exhaust alone — no Energy, no Power — and 315.1.b readies it every Awaken, so this is one ready a turn, every turn, for 1 Order Power. Against a one-shot like peak-guardian-fiora-mass-ready (three uses a game, whole garrison) this is the sustainable half of the same lens.
• 702.3 IS THE CAP AND IT IS PERMANENT, not per turn: 'There can only be one Buff on a Unit at a time', and 702.3.a says a second 'is not placed instead'. So the Bar must find a DIFFERENT unbuffed 4-Might body each turn — a unit it has already buffed can never become Mighty again this way. In practice the fodder is a token faucet or a rotating garrison, which is why the pairing wants a wide board rather than a tall one.
• The arithmetic is exact and small: 703 gives the buff +1 Might, 708 makes 5+ Mighty, and 709 fires only on the crossing. A 4-Might body readies; a 3-Might body goes to 4 and stops; a 5-Might body was already Mighty. Nothing here manufactures the 4.
• Buffing is CHOOSING (702.2.a), so the Bar's activation is also a choose of a friendly unit — which switches on SFD-195 Blade Dancer and SFD-057 Irelia, Fervent if the shell carries them. Neither is declared.
• Six Energy for the pair and 1 Order Power a turn thereafter. Both halves are fragile in different ways: the Bar is a gear and dies to gear removal, Fiora is a 3-Might body.

Steps

1. Play Arena Bar (3 Energy) and Fiora, Worthy (3 Energy).
2. Spend a 4-Might unit's exhaust during your Main Phase — move it, attack with it, or pay an exhaust ability with it.
3. Activate Arena Bar by exhausting it: buff that exhausted 4-Might friend. 703 takes it to 5 and 709 fires 'becomes Mighty'.
4. Fiora's trigger goes up: pay 1 Order Power to ready it. That unit can now act a second time this turn.
5. Both the Bar and the unit ready at your next Awaken (315.1.b). Repeat every turn, aiming the Bar at a body it has not already buffed (702.3).

Per iteration

+1 unit readied per turn for 1 Order Power and no Energy

How it ends

engine — one extra action a turn, forever; it scores nothing by itself
