How it works

  1. Cast Another Round by paying its mana cost, blinking Abdel Adrian.
  2. Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, returning Pinnacle Monk and all other cards that were exiled with it to the battlefield.
  3. Abdel Adrian and Pinnacle Monk trigger.
  4. Resolve the Pinnacle Monk trigger, returning Another Round 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 Another Round.
  6. Resolve the Abdel Adrian trigger, exiling Pinnacle Monk 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 brilliant loop turns a simple blink spell into a perpetual engine by pairing Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward with Another Round to endlessly cycle your board. Each time Another Round resolves, it flickers Abdel Adrian and Pinnacle Monk—whose adventure side, Mystic Peak, provides the crucial recursion to pull Another Round right back out of your graveyard. While Abdel Adrian's enter-the-battlefield trigger re-exiles your mana-producing permanents to generate a growing army of 1f/1 Soldier tokens, you simply tap those permanents for mana before they vanish to pay for the next casting of Another Round, sustaining the sequence indefinitely across your commander, legacy, oathbreaker, and vintage decks.
