Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward + Izzet Chronarch + Flicker

Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward

Izzet Chronarch

Flicker

How it works

1. Cast Flicker by paying its mana cost, blinking Abdel Adrian.
2. Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, returning Izzet Chronarch and all other cards that were exiled with it to the battlefield.
3. Abdel Adrian and Izzet Chronarch trigger.
4. Resolve the Izzet Chronarch trigger, returning Flicker 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.
6. Resolve the Abdel Adrian trigger, exiling Izzet Chronarch 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 looping maneuver turns a simple blink spell into an absolute factory of magical energy by exploiting Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward and his ability to temporarily swallow our own board. Every time Flicker re-enters the battlefield, Abdel Adrian's entrance trigger takes Izzet Chronarch along with our mana-producing permanents into exile, subsequently spitting them all back out to restart the cycle. While Izzet Chronarch handles the recursion by constantly clawing Flicker right back out of the graveyard into our hand, the mana-producing permanents are tapped to pay for the spell each iteration, fueling an endless cascade of enters-the-battlefield triggers and an ever-growing army of Soldier tokens.
