Jin-Gitaxias, Progress Tyrant + Venser, Shaper Savant + Naban, Dean of Iteration + Temporal Manipulation

Jin-Gitaxias, Progress Tyrant

Venser, Shaper Savant

Naban, Dean of Iteration

Temporal Manipulation

How it works

1. Cast Temporal Manipulation by paying 3.
2. Jin-Gitaxias triggers, copying Temporal Manipulation.
3. Holding priority, cast Venser by paying 2.
4. When Venser enters the battlefield, it triggers twice, returning itself and the original Temporal Manipulation to your hand from the battlefield and stack respectively.
5. Resolve the copy of Temporal Manipulation, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
6. Repeat each turn.

This clever loop hinges on Jin-Gitaxias, Progress Tyrant to double your spells, allowing you to cast Temporal Manipulation and immediately receive a free copy of it without using up your original. Meanwhile, Naban, Dean of Iteration doubles Venser, Shaper Savant's entry trigger, which provides the critical utility needed to bounce both the original Temporal Manipulation back to your hand and Venser itself for reuse. Because Jin-Gitaxias also counters the first artifact, instant, or sorcery your opponents try to cast each turn, your setup remains well-protected as you take infinite turns to close out the game.
