The Watcher in the Water + Wylie Duke, Atiin Hero + Heart of Kiran + Blasting Station + Arcane Adaptation

The Watcher in the Water

Wylie Duke, Atiin Hero

Heart of Kiran

Blasting Station

Arcane Adaptation

How it works

1. During an opponent's turn, activate Heart of Kiran by tapping Wylie Duke.
2. Wylie Duke triggers, causing you to draw a card and gain 1 life.
3. The Watcher's first ability triggers, creating a 1/1 Tentacle creature token.
4. When the Tentacle enters, Blasting Station triggers, untapping Blasting Station.
5. Resolve the Heart of Kiran ability, causing it to become a creature until end of turn.
6. Activate Blasting Station by tapping it and sacrificing the Tentacle.
7. When the Tentacle dies, The Watcher's second ability triggers, untapping Wylie Duke and putting a stun counter on up to one permanent.
8. Resolve the Blasting Station ability
9. Repeat.

This ingenious loop turns an opponent's turn into your own personal processing engine by rewriting creature types with Arcane Adaptation so that everything works in harmony. By using Wylie Duke, Atiin Hero to crew Heart of Kiran—an alternative cost wonderfully enabled by tapping Wylie Duke—you trigger a card draw that forces The Watcher in the Water to spawn a Tentacle token. That new token's arrival untaps Blasting Station, allowing you to sacrifice the Tentacle to Blasting Station for damage, which in turn triggers The Watcher in the Water to untap Wylie Duke and set the whole dance in motion once more.
