Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward + Wormfang Drake + Clever Impersonator

Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward

Wormfang Drake

Clever Impersonator

How it works

1. Cast Abdel Adrian by paying 4.
2. Abdel Adrian enters the battlefield, exiling Clever Impersonator until Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, and creating a 1/1 Soldier creature token.
3. Clever Impersonator leaves the battlefield, triggering its second ability, returning Wormfang Drake from exile to the battlefield.
4. Wormfang Drake enters the battlefield, triggering its first ability, exiling Abdel Adrian.
5. Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, returning Clever Impersonator from exile to the battlefield as a copy of Wormfang Drake.
6. Clever Impersonator enters the battlefield, triggering its first ability, exiling Wormfang Drake.
7. Wormfang Drake leaves the battlefield, triggering its second ability, returning Abdel Adrian from exile to the battlefield.
8. Repeat from step 2.

This ingenious loop relies on a self-sustaining cycle of exile and return that transforms a simple trio of permanents into an infinite engine. When Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward enters the battlefield, it sets the stage by exiling Clever Impersonator, which cleverly enters as a copy of Wormfang Drake. The real magic happens because Wormfang Drake's mandatory sacrifice trigger forces it to exile Abdel Adrian in turn; when Abdel leaves, Clever Impersonator returns, immediately resets its identity to copy Wormfang Drake once more, and triggers another cycle. This endless relay floods the board with infinite creature tokens and infinite entry and leave-the-battlefield triggers from your blinking permanents.
