The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk + Sakashima of a Thousand Faces + Emiel the Blessed

The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk

Sakashima of a Thousand Faces

Emiel the Blessed

How it works

1. Activate Sakashima of a Thousand Faces 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. Activate Emiel by paying 3, blinking Sakashima of a Thousand Faces. Choose to have it enter the battlefield as a copy of Avatar Kuruk.
3. Repeat each turn.

By using Sakashima of a Thousand Faces to copy The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk while bypassing the legend rule, you set up an engine capable of looping extra turns. Emiel the Blessed provides the crucial blink effect to reset the Saga by paying three mana to exile and return Sakashima, allowing it to enter anew as a fresh Avatar Kuruk. Because Avatar Kuruk's Exhaust ability only specifies that each exhaust ability can be activated once, resetting the card via Emiel the Blessed lets you tap artifacts and creatures to pay the Waterbend cost repeatedly for infinite turns.
