How it works

  1. Activate Alaundo the Seer by tapping it, causing you to draw a card and exile a card from your hand with time counters on it equal to its mana value, then removing a time counter from each other card you own in exile.
  2. Reality Strobe triggers, causing you to cast it from exile without paying its mana cost.
  3. Chakram Retriever triggers, untapping Alaundo the Seer.
  4. Resolve Reality Strobe, returning a permanent to its owner's hand, then exiling Reality Strobe with three time counters on it.
  5. Activate Alaundo the Seer by tapping it, causing you to draw a card and exile a card from your hand with time counters on it equal to its mana value, then removing a time counter from each other card you own in exile.
  6. Inspiring Refrain triggers, causing you to cast it from exile without paying its mana cost.
  7. Chakram Retriever triggers, untapping Alaundo the Seer.
  8. Resolve Inspiring Refrain, causing you to draw two cards and then exile Inspiring Refrain with three time counters on it.
  9. Activate Alaundo the Seer by tapping it, causing you to draw a card and exile a card from your hand with time counters on it equal to its mana value, then removing a time counter from each card you own in exile.
  10. Cyclical Evolution triggers, causing you to cast it from exile without paying its mana cost.
  11. Chakram Retriever triggers, untapping Alaundo the Seer.
  12. Resolve Cyclical Evolution, giving target creature +3/+3 until end of turn and then exiling Cyclical Evolution with three time counters on it.
  13. Repeat.

This ingenious loop relies on Alaundo the Seer accelerating time-suspended spells like Reality Strobe, Inspiring Refrain, and Cyclical Evolution out of exile with every single activation. As those spells are cast for free, Chakram Retriever's passive ability triggers off the spellcast to immediately untap Alaundo the Seer, letting you tap the seer again to dig deeper into your library and advance your suspended cards even faster. By cycling these spells back into exile with their own suspend mechanics while continuously accelerating them, you create an unstoppable engine that draws your entire deck and bounces opposing permanents indefinitely.
