Eirdu, Carrier of Dawn // Isilu, Carrier of Twilight + Blasting Station + Marionette Master

Eirdu, Carrier of Dawn // Isilu, Carrier of Twilight

Blasting Station

Marionette Master

How it works

1. Activate Blasting Station by tapping it and sacrificing Marionette Master.
2. When Marionette Master dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.
3. When Marionette Master enters, its fabricate ability and Blasting Station trigger.
4. Resolve the Marionette Master trigger, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
5. Resolve the Blasting Station trigger, untapping it.
6. Resolve the Blasting Station ability from step 1.
7. Repeat.

This cunning loop centers around Isilu, Carrier of Twilight—the transformed face of Eirdu, Carrier of Dawn—whose static ability grants your nontoken creatures persist to ensure they simply refuse to stay dead. When you sacrifice Marionette Master to Blasting Station, the Master's own persist brings it right back to the battlefield, triggering Blasting Station to untap itself while simultaneously fueling Marionette Master's fabricate ability to neutralize its new -1/-1 counter with a +1/+1 counter. With this endless cycle of sacrifices and returns established, Blasting Station peppers the board with damage while Marionette Master's triggered ability drains your opponents' life totals into oblivion.
