How it works

  1. Cast Flicker of Fate by paying its mana cost, blinking Abdel Adrian.
  2. Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, returning Possessed Skaab and all other cards that were exiled with it to the battlefield.
  3. Abdel Adrian and Possessed Skaab trigger.
  4. Resolve the Possessed Skaab trigger, returning Flicker of Fate 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 Flicker of Fate.
  6. Resolve the Abdel Adrian trigger, exiling Possessed Skaab 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 loop turns **Flicker of Fate** into a continuous engine by exploiting the recursive power of **Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward** and **Possessed Skaab**. Every time **Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward** is blinked, he exiles **Possessed Skaab** along with any mana-producing permanents you control, immediately spawning a growing army of Soldier tokens. When he leaves the battlefield, **Possessed Skaab** returns to hand-delivery service, its enter-the-battlefield trigger scooping **Flicker of Fate** right back out of your graveyard to recast and repeat the cycle.
