How it works

  1. Activate Mystic Sanctuary by tapping it, adding U mana.
  2. Cast Capture of Jingzhou by paying its mana cost, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
  3. Cast Ghostly Flicker by paying 2U mana, blinking Mystic Sanctuary and Possessed Skaab.
  4. When Possessed Skaab and Mystic Sanctuary enter the battlefield, they trigger.
  5. Resolve the Possessed Skaab trigger, returning Ghostly Flicker from your graveyard to your hand.
  6. Resolve the Mystic Sanctuary trigger, putting Capture of Jingzhou from your graveyard onto the top of your library.
  7. Move to your next turn, drawing Capture of Jingzhou during your draw step.
  8. Repeat.

This elegant loop achieves infinite turns by recycling your entire spell suite right off the battlefield. By casting Capture of Jingzhou to secure your extra turn, you set up the engine to continuously loop your resources. Ghostly Flicker serves as the mechanical heart of the operation, resetting both Mystic Sanctuary—which places Capture of Jingzhou right back on top of your library to be drawn—and Possessed Skaab, whose entry trigger plucks Ghostly Flicker straight out of your graveyard to keep the chain unbroken.
