How it works

  1. Cast Capture of Jingzhou by paying its mana cost, taking an extra turn after this one.
  2. At the beginning of your next upkeep, Progenitor Mimic triggers, creating a token copy of Archaeomancer.
  3. When the token Archaeomancer enters the battlefield, it triggers itself, returning Capture of Jingzhou from your graveyard to your hand.
  4. Repeat.

This clever loop relies on the constant recursion of extra turns to bury your opponents under a mountain of card advantage. By copying Archaeomancer with Progenitor Mimic every upkeep, you ensure a fresh enter-the-battlefield trigger that effortlessly fishes Capture of Jingzhou right back out of your graveyard. Since you get to cast Capture of Jingzhou anew on your endless extra turns, the Mimic keeps churning out more non-token wizards and the loop becomes entirely self-sustaining.
