Aurelia, the Warleader + Seluma, Light of Aysen + Shilgengar, Sire of Famine

Aurelia, the Warleader

Seluma, Light of Aysen

Shilgengar, Sire of Famine

How it works

1. Declare Aurelia and Seluma as attackers. Aurelia triggers, causing you to untap all creatures you control and to get an additional combat phase after this one.
2. Activate Shilgengar by sacrificing Aurelia.
3. Deal combat damage using Seluma. Seluma triggers, returning Aurelia from your graveyard to the battlefield.
4. Repeat.

This elegant loop leverages Shilgengar, Sire of Famine as a devastating engine, sacrificing Aurelia, the Warleader to fuel its ability while setting the stage for resurrection. Seluma, Light of Aysen bridges the gap by swooping in with combat damage to return Aurelia directly from the graveyard to the battlefield, bypassing the need for Shilgengar's expensive mana activation. Because Aurelia untaps all your creatures and grants an additional combat phase each time she attacks for the first time in a turn, you can repeat this cycle indefinitely, generating endless combat steps, sacrifice triggers, and Blood tokens.
