Hidetsugu and Kairi + Clone Legion + Salvager of Secrets

Hidetsugu and Kairi

Clone Legion

Salvager of Secrets

How it works

1. Cast Clone Legion by paying 7, causing you to create a token copy of Hidetsugu and Kairi and Salvager of Secrets.
2. Put the token Hidetsugu and Kairi into your graveyard due to the legend rule.
3. The Hidetsugu and Kairi token's first and second abilities trigger, as well as Salvager of Secrets.
4. Resolve the Salvager of Secrets trigger, returning Clone Legion from your graveyard to your hand.
5. Resolve the first Hidetsugu and Kairi trigger, causing you to draw three cards and then put Clone Legion and another card on top of your library, ensuring Clone Legion is on top.
6. Resolve the second Hidetsugu and Kairi trigger, exiling Clone Legion from the top of your library, then causing an opponent to lose 9 life and allowing you to cast Clone Legion from exile without paying its mana cost.
7. Resolve Clone Legion, causing you to create a token copy of Hidetsugu and Kairi and Salvager of Secrets.
8. Repeat from step 2.

This delightful loop gets its engine running when you cast Clone Legion to bring down a wave of allies, copying both Hidetsugu and Kairi and Salvager of Secrets in the process. The legend rule immediately sends your extra Hidetsugu and Kairi to the graveyard, sparking its deadly death trigger alongside Salvager of Secrets' entry ability. While Salvager of Secrets reaches into your graveyard to fish back the original Clone Legion, Hidetsugu and Kairi sets up the top of your library so that its final triggered ability exiles and casts that very same Clone Legion for free, draining your opponent for a massive 9 life in the process.
