How it works

  1. Cast Timeline Culler from your hand by paying B manaB mana or from your graveyard or hand for its warp cost by paying B mana and 2 life.
  2. Aetherflux Reservoir, causing you to gain 1 life for each spell you've cast this turn.
  3. Activate Phyrexian Altar by sacrificing Timeline Culler, adding B mana.
  4. Repeat.

This clever loop uses Phyrexian Altar as a sacrifice outlet to continually recycle Timeline Culler, which can be repeatedly recast from the graveyard using its warp ability for just one black mana and two life. As you cast spell after spell, Aetherflux Reservoir tracks the rising storm count to rapidly pad your life total, creating an escalating life cushion that easily offsets the cost of warping and eventually fuels the artifact's ultimate ability to laser down any target.
