How it works

  1. Cast Oathsworn Vampire either from your hand or graveyard by paying 1B mana.
  2. Edgar triggers, creating a 1/1 Vampire creature token.
  3. When the Vampire and Oathsworn Vampire enter, Guide of Souls triggers twice, causing you to gain 2 life and get EE.
  4. Activate Warren Soultrader twice by paying 2 life and sacrificing Oathsworn Vampire and the Vampire token, creating two Treasure tokens.
  5. Activate two Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding 1B mana.
  6. Repeat.

This loop turns a modest Vampire into an engine for infinite resources by exploiting a clever loop of life, death, and resurrection. Each time you cast Oathsworn Vampire, Edgar Markov's *Eminence* ability and Guide of Souls work together: Edgar drops an extra Vampire token to double up your entry triggers, while Guide of Souls rewards you with life and energy. That lifegain satisfies Oathsworn Vampire's condition to let you recast it directly from the graveyard. Finally, Warren Soultrader steps in to convert your creatures into Treasure tokens, providing the exact mana and fodder needed to repeat the process indefinitely.
