Eirdu, Carrier of Dawn // Isilu, Carrier of Twilight + Viscera Seer + Marionette Master

Eirdu, Carrier of Dawn // Isilu, Carrier of Twilight

Viscera Seer

Marionette Master

How it works

1. Activate Viscera Seer by sacrificing Marionette Master.
2. When Marionette Master dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.
3. When Marionette Master enters, its fabricate ability triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
4. Resolve the Viscera Seer ability.
5. Repeat.

This elegant loop relies on Eirdu, Carrier of Dawn // Isilu, Carrier of Twilight granting its persist ability to Marionette Master, allowing the Master to return from the graveyard with a -1/-1 counter whenever it dies to Viscera Seer. Marionette Master’s fabricate ability counters this drawback upon re-entry by placing a +1/+1 counter on it, which immediately neutralizes the -1/-1 counter through state-based actions. Meanwhile, Marionette Master's own triggered ability weaponizes the entire cycle, draining life from your opponents each time it hits the graveyard as an artifact creature.
