Emiel the Blessed + Zirda, the Dawnwaker + Swashbuckler Extraordinaire

Emiel the Blessed

Zirda, the Dawnwaker

Swashbuckler Extraordinaire

How it works

1. Activate Emiel the Blessed by paying 1, blinking Swashbuckler Extraordinaire.
2. When Swashbuckler Extraordinaire enters the battlefield, it triggers, creating a Treasure artifact token.
3. Activate the Treasure by tapping and sacrificing it, adding 1.
4. Repeat.

This clever loop turns Emiel the Blessed into a self-sustaining blink engine by leaning on Zirda, the Dawnwaker to slash Emiel's blink cost down to just a single generic mana. With that heavy discount in place, Swashbuckler Extraordinaire becomes the perfect sacrifice partner; every time it enters the battlefield, its triggered ability spits out a fresh Treasure token. Sacrificing that very same Treasure instantly funds the next activation of Emiel the Blessed, allowing you to cycle Swashbuckler Extraordinaire through exile indefinitely for infinite entry and leave-the-battlefield triggers.
