How it works

  1. Cast Oathsworn Vampire either from your hand or graveyard by paying 1B mana.
  2. Edgar triggers, creating a 1/1 Vampire creature token.
  3. Activate Warren Soultrader by paying 1 life and sacrificing Oathsworn Vampire.
  4. When Oathsworn Vampire dies, Zulaport Cutthroat triggers, causing each opponent to lose 1 life and you to gain 1 life.
  5. Resolve the Warren Soultrader ability, creating a Treasure token.
  6. Repeat steps 3 through 5 once, sacrificing the Vampire token instead.
  7. Activate two Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding 1B mana.
  8. Repeat.

This clever loop turns a simple family of Vampires into an unstoppable engine of life and death, fueled entirely by recycling your graveyard. As you cast Oathsworn Vampire, Edgar Markov's eminence ability swoops in to reinforce your ranks by spitting out a fresh 1/1 token. You then feed those bodies to Warren Soultrader, whose sacrifices generate the Treasure tokens needed to recast your recurring threat while triggering Zulaport Cutthroat to steadily drain your opponents dry. Because Zulaport Cutthroat grants you life on every single death, it conveniently satisfies the life-gain condition required to recast Oathsworn Vampire straight from the graveyard over and over again.
