How it works

  1. Cast Temporal Manipulation by paying its mana cost, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
  2. Cast Pinnacle Monk by paying its mana cost.
  3. When Pinnacle Monk enters the battlefield, it triggers, returning Temporal Manipulation from your graveyard to your hand.
  4. Move to your next turn.
  5. Activate Dour Port-Mage by paying 1U mana and tapping it, returning Pinnacle Monk from the battlefield to your hand.
  6. Dour Port-Mage triggers, causing you to draw a card.
  7. Repeat.

This elegant loop achieves infinite turns by recycling a single copy of Temporal Manipulation over and over again. When you cast Pinnacle Monk, its enters-the-battlefield trigger pulls the sorcery right back out of your graveyard, and Dour Port-Mage's activated ability provides the engine to bounce the Monk back to your hand for reuse while simultaneously drawing you a card off the Mage's passive trigger. By feeding this sequence continuously, you lock down the game with endless turns while steadily churning through your entire library.
