Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward + Invasion of Arcavios // Invocation of the Founders + Blur

Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward

Invasion of Arcavios // Invocation of the Founders

Blur

How it works

1. Cast Blur by paying its mana cost, blinking Abdel Adrian and causing you to draw a card.
2. Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, returning Invasion of Arcavios and all other cards that were exiled with it to the battlefield.
3. Abdel Adrian and Invasion of Arcavios trigger.
4. Resolve the Invasion of Arcavios trigger, returning Blur from your graveyard to your hand.
5. Holding priority, activate any number of nonland permanents you control by tapping them, adding at least enough mana to cast Blur.
6. Resolve the Abdel Adrian trigger, exiling Invasion of Arcavios and the mana-producing permanents until Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, and creating a 1/1 Soldier creature token for each permanent exiled this way.
7. Repeat.

This elegant little loop turns a simple flicker spell into an engine of boundless replication. By casting Blur, you blink Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward, which triggers his ability to temporarily swallow up your mana-producing permanents and Invasion of Arcavios. When Invasion of Arcavios enters the battlefield anew, its front face fetches Blur right back out of your graveyard and into your hand. Tapping your mana sources before Abdel's exile trigger resolves fuels the next iteration, letting you generate an endless army of Soldier tokens, cycle through your entire deck for infinite card draw, and reap the benefits of Invasion of Arcavios's back face, Invocation of the Founders, copying your spells along the way.
