How it works

  1. Activate Mystic Sanctuary by tapping it, adding U mana.
  2. Cast Temporal Manipulation by paying its mana cost, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
  3. Cast Ghostly Flicker by paying 2U mana, blinking Mystic Sanctuary and Salvager of Secrets.
  4. When Salvager of Secrets and Mystic Sanctuary enter the battlefield, they trigger.
  5. Resolve the Salvager of Secrets trigger, returning Ghostly Flicker from your graveyard to your hand.
  6. Resolve the Mystic Sanctuary trigger, putting Temporal Manipulation from your graveyard onto the top of your library.
  7. Move to your next turn, drawing Temporal Manipulation during your draw step.
  8. Repeat.

This ingenious loop locks down the game by granting you endless consecutive turns, fueled by the recursive synergy between your spells and land drops. By casting Temporal Manipulation, you secure the extra turns necessary to cycle through your deck, while Ghostly Flicker resets your battlefield by exiling and returning your key permanents. When Ghostly Flicker blinks Salvager of Secrets and Mystic Sanctuary, their combined triggers allow you to pluck Ghostly Flicker right back out of your graveyard and seamlessly tuck Temporal Manipulation back onto the top of your library to draw and cast again.
