How it works

  1. Activate Chameleon using Avatar Kuruk's ability 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. Activate Emiel by paying 3, blinking Chameleon. Choose to have it enter the battlefield as a copy of Avatar Kuruk.
  3. Repeat each turn.

This crafty combination achieves infinite turns by repeatedly leveraging the unique transformation mechanic of The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk, whose backside features an expensive Exhaust ability to take an extra turn. Because Avatar Kuruk is a Saga that exiles itself and returns transformed on chapter three, normal blinking would normally reset it; however, entering with Chameleon, Master of Disguise as a copy of the Avatar bypasses this restriction while retaining the original's formidable Waterbend cost-reduction potential. Emiel the Blessed provides the engine to reset this loop indefinitely by blinking the Chameleon over and over, allowing you to continually pay the discounted {20} waterbend cost using your untapped artifacts and creatures to chain extra turns and lock the game down.
