The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk + Deadeye Navigator + Sakashima of a Thousand Faces

The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk

Deadeye Navigator

Sakashima of a Thousand Faces

How it works

1. Activate Sakashima using Avatar Kuruk's ability by paying 20 minus 1 for each creature and/or artifact you can tap while activating it, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
2. Activate Sakashima by paying 1, blinking it. Choose to have it enter the battlefield as a copy of Avatar Kuruk.
3. When Sakashima enters, Deadeye Navigator's soulbond ability triggers, repairing it and Sakashima.
4. Repeat each turn.

By leveraging Avatar Kuruk's unique exhaust ability, you can invest into a massive Waterbend cost to take an extra turn, tapping down your available artifacts and creatures to help pay the way. The magic truly ignites when you pair Deadeye Navigator with a clone: by using Sakashima of a Thousand Faces to copy Avatar Kuruk, you bypass the legend rule and gain access to those same potent abilities. You can then spend a small amount of mana to blink Sakashima with Deadeye Navigator's activated ability, causing it to re-enter as a fresh copy of The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk—resetting its once-per-game exhaustion constraint and letting you chain infinite turns back-to-back.
