How it works

  1. Activate Bloodflow Connoisseur by sacrificing Relentless Skaabs
  2. When Relentless Skaabs dies, its undying ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it.
  3. Activate Bloodflow Connoisseur by sacrificing Relentless Skaabs
  4. When Relentless Skaabs dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.
  5. Resolve both Bloodflow Connoisseur abilities from step 1 and 3.
  6. Repeat.

This clever recycling loop turns a single resilient zombie into endless fuel for your board, relying on the dual nature of Eirdu, Carrier of Dawn // Isilu, Carrier of Twilight to keep the engine going. While the back face, Isilu, grants persist to your nontoken creatures, Relentless Skaabs naturally brings its own undying ability to the table, creating a perfect counterbalance of counters. By feeding Relentless Skaabs to Bloodflow Connoisseur, you trigger these opposing abilities back-to-back as the creature dies and returns with alternating counters that continually cancel each other out. The Connoisseur grows endlessly large with each sacrifice while generating an unlimited storm of death and entry triggers, all supported by Eirdu and Isilu's transformative presence.
