Dualcaster Mage + Bloodflow Connoisseur + Presumed Dead

Dualcaster Mage

Bloodflow Connoisseur

Presumed Dead

How it works

1. Cast Presumed Dead by paying its mana cost.
2. Holding priority, cast Dualcaster Mage by paying its mana cost.
3. When Dualcaster Mage enters, it triggers, copying Presumed Dead, with the copy targeting Dualcaster Mage.
4. Resolve the copy of Presumed Dead.
5. Holding priority, activate Bloodflow Connoisseur by sacrificing Dualcaster Mage.
6. When Dualcaster Mage dies, it triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield.
7. Repeat from step 3.
8. Resolve all Bloodflow Connoisseur abilities from step 5.

This clever loop turns a simple combat trick into an engine of endless rebirth, centered around the spell-duplicating magic of Dualcaster Mage. By casting Presumed Dead and dropping Dualcaster Mage to copy it onto itself, you set up a permanent safety net where the Mage simply refuses to stay dead. Whenever Bloodflow Connoisseur demands a sacrifice, you happily feed the Mage to it, triggering the lingering effect that immediately returns the creature straight back to the battlefield—ready to copy Presumed Dead all over again and feed the Connoisseur endless +1/+1 counters.
