The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk + Marvin, Murderous Mimic + Soulherder

The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk

Marvin, Murderous Mimic

Soulherder

How it works

1. Activate Marvin using Avatar Kuruk's ability 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 Marvin.
3. Repeat each turn.

This clever setup harnesses the unique transformation and mechanical potential of The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk by letting Marvin, Murderous Mimic borrow the legendary Avatar's expensive Waterbend exhaust ability without paying the usual restriction of activating it only once. By leveraging Soulherder's end-step blink, Marvin is continuously exiled and returned as a fresh object, wiping away its activation history and allowing you to repeatedly tap down your artifacts and creatures to pay the remaining cost. The beauty of this loop is that Soulherder also rewards every blink by growing larger with a +1/+1 counter, turning a game-winning infinite turn engine into a steadily compounding board state.
