How it works

  1. Cast Time Warp by paying 3U manaU mana.
  2. Double Vision triggers, copying Time Warp.
  3. Holding priority, cast Venser by paying 2U manaU mana.
  4. When Venser enters the battlefield, it triggers twice, returning itself and the original Time Warp to your hand from the battlefield and stack respectively.
  5. Resolve the copy of Time Warp, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
  6. Repeat each turn.

This elegant loop secures infinite turns by abusing the interaction between your spells and permanents on every single cycle. When you kick things off by casting Time Warp, Double Vision steps in to automatically double the spell, guaranteeing you your extra turns. The real brilliance of the setup, however, lies in Elesh Norn, Mother of Machines: her static ability doubles the entry triggers of permanents you control, which turbocharges Venser, Shaper Savant. Thanks to that doubling, a single flash-cast of Venser handles both bouncing itself back to your hand for reuse and retrieving the original Time Warp from the stack, locking down the game completely.
