How it works

  1. Activate Marvin using Chainer's ability by discarding a card, allowing you to cast a creature spell from your graveyard this turn.
  2. Activate Krark-Clan Ironworks by sacrificing Marvin, adding CC.
  3. Cast Marvin from your graveyard by paying 2.
  4. When Marvin enters the battlefield, Chainer triggers, giving Marvin haste until end of turn.
  5. Activate Marvin using Loran's ability by tapping it, causing you and an opponent to draw a card.
  6. Repeat.

This loop transforms the graveyard into an engine of endless value by utilizing Marvin, Murderous Mimic as a shapeshifting vessel for your other permanents. Because Marvin copies the activated abilities of your other creatures, it can simultaneously adopt Chainer, Nightmare Adept's graveyard-casting ability and Loran of the Third Path's card-drawing tap ability. You feed Marvin to Krark-Clan Ironworks for mana, replay him from the graveyard thanks to Chainer, and repeat the process to draw your entire deck while your opponents are buried under a mountain of card draw and triggers.
