The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk + Soulherder + Pir, Imaginative Rascal

The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk

Soulherder

Pir, Imaginative Rascal

How it works

1. Activate Avatar Kuruk by paying 20 minus 1 for each creature and/or artifact you can tap while activating it, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
2. At the beginning of your end step, Soulherder triggers, blinking Avatar Kuruk and causing it to return to the battlefield as The Legend of Kuruk with two lore counters on it due to Pir.
3. The Legend of Kuruk's first and second chapter abilities trigger, causing you to scry 2, draw a card, scry 2 and draw another card.
4. Move to your next turn. At the beginning of your precombat main phase. The Legend of Kuruk triggers, putting two lore counters on it. Its third chapter ability triggers, causing you to exile it and return it to the battlefield as Avatar Kuruk.
5. Repeat.

This dazzling infinite turn loop centers around Avatar Kuruk, whose massive Exhaust waterbend ability is fueled by tapping your assorted permanents, though we need a clever way to reset it once used. That's where Soulherder comes in, blinking Avatar Kuruk at your end step so it returns to the battlefield as The Legend of Kuruk. To accelerate its saga chapters back to the transformation stage, Pir, Imaginative Rascal steps in as a powerful amplifier, doubling the lore counters placed on The Legend of Kuruk and allowing it to rapidly flip back into Avatar Kuruk just in time for your next extra turn.
