Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward + Salvager of Secrets + Illusionist's Stratagem

Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward

Salvager of Secrets

Illusionist's Stratagem

How it works

1. Cast Illusionist's Stratagem by paying its mana cost, blinking Abdel Adrian.
2. Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, returning Salvager of Secrets and all other cards that were exiled with it to the battlefield.
3. Abdel Adrian and Salvager of Secrets trigger.
4. Resolve the Salvager of Secrets trigger, returning Illusionist's Stratagem 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 Illusionist's Stratagem.
6. Resolve the Abdel Adrian trigger, exiling Salvager of Secrets 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 clever loop turns a simple blink spell into an unstoppable engine by leveraging Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward to repeatedly cycle your board in and out of exile. When Illusionist's Stratagem blinks Abdel Adrian, he vanishes and immediately returns Salvager of Secrets alongside your other permanents, which triggers Salvager of Secrets to fish the Stratagem right back out of your graveyard. Meanwhile, Abdel Adrian's own entry trigger scoops up Salvager of Secrets and your mana sources all over again, generating a flood of Soldier tokens while resetting everything for the next iteration.
