How it works

  1. Activate Phyrexian Altar by sacrificing Wormfang Manta, adding U mana.
  2. When Wormfang Manta dies, its second ability triggers, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
  3. Cast Wormfang Manta by paying 5U manaU mana.
  4. Wormfang Manta's first ability does not trigger when it enters the battlefield due to Hushwing Gryff.
  5. Repeat each turn.

By pairing Hushwing Gryff with Wormfang Manta, we bypass the Leviathan's painful drawback—canceling its enters-the-battlefield trigger entirely—while still keeping its leaves-the-battlefield ability intact. Once you sacrifice the Manta to Phyrexian Altar, it triggers an extra turn, and because Karador, Ghost Chieftain lets you replay a creature from your graveyard each turn, you can cast the Manta right back out using the mana generated by the Altar. This creates an unstoppable cycle of infinite turns that locks down the game completely.
