How it works

  1. Activate Avatar Kuruk by paying 20 minus 1 for each creature and/or artifact you can tap while activating it, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
  2. At the beginning of your end step, The Mighty Thor triggers, blinking Avatar Kuruk and causing it to return to the battlefield as The Legend of Kuruk with a lore counter on it.
  3. The Legend of Kuruk's first chapter ability triggers, causing you to scry 2 and draw a card.
  4. Move to your next turn. At the beginning of your precombat main phase. The Legend of Kuruk triggers, putting a lore counter on it. Its second chapter ability then triggers, causing you to scry 2 and draw a card.
  5. Activate Karn's Bastion by paying 4 and tapping it, causing you to proliferate and put a lore counter on The Legend of Kuruk.
  6. The Legend of Kuruk's third chapter ability triggers, causing you to exile it and return it to the battlefield as Avatar Kuruk.
  7. Repeat.

This brilliant engine lets you take infinite turns by perpetually cycling Avatar Kuruk between its back and front faces. While Karn's Bastion helps accelerate the saga's progression by adding the final lore counters needed to trigger the flip, The Mighty Thor, Jane Foster resets the permanent at the end step by blinking it back into The Legend of Kuruk. This continuous loop of transforming and resetting allows Avatar Kuruk to repeatedly fund its massive Waterbend cost and chain extra turns indefinitely.
