How it works

  1. Cast Second Sunrise by paying its mana cost
  2. Holding priority, cast Dualcaster Mage by paying its mana cost.
  3. When Dualcaster Mage enters, it triggers, targeting Second Sunrise.
  4. Holding priority, activate Woe Strider by sacrificing Dualcaster Mage.
  5. Resolve the Dualcaster Mage trigger, copying Second Sunrise
  6. Resolve the Second Sunrise copy, returning Dualcaster Mage from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  7. Repeat from step 3.

This intricate loop centers around the continuous recursion of **Second Sunrise**, which constantly brings back the very pieces needed to cast and copy it anew. **Dualcaster Mage** acts as the engine's catalyst, flashing in to duplicate the spell on the stack and immediately recycling itself whenever it hits the graveyard. To keep the cycle going, **Woe Strider** provides a reliable outlet to sacrifice Dualcaster Mage into the yard while simultaneously smoothing out your draws with its scry ability whenever a creature bites the dust.
