How it works

  1. Activate Kaya the Inexorable's first ability by putting a loyalty counter on it, putting a ghostform counter on Wormfang Manta.
  2. Activate Thermopod's second ability by sacrificing Wormfang Manta, adding R mana.
  3. When Wormfang Manta dies, its second ability and its ghostform ability trigger.
  4. Resolve the ghostform trigger, returning Wormfang Manta from your graveyard to your hand and creating a 1/1 Spirit creature token.
  5. Resolve the second trigger, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
  6. Resolve the Thermopod ability, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
  7. Cast Wormfang Manta by paying 5U manaU mana.
  8. Wormfang Manta's first ability does not trigger due to Torpor Orb.
  9. Repeat each turn.

This mesmerizing loop bends time itself to your will by exploiting the unique delayed trigger of Wormfang Manta. While Torpor Orb safely silences the Manta's self-sabotaging entry trigger so you never skip a beat, Thermopod stands ready to melt down the creature for red mana whenever needed. This death instantly triggers the ghostform counter previously bestowed by Kaya the Inexorable, sliding the Manta right back into your hand while its own departure triggers a coveted extra turn. Cast the Manta once more to repeat the cycle endlessly, locking opponents out of the game in a perpetual loop of your own unending turns.
