Eirdu, Carrier of Dawn // Isilu, Carrier of Twilight + Altar of Dementia + Elegant Edgecrafters

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

Altar of Dementia

Elegant Edgecrafters

How it works

1. Activate Altar of Dementia by sacrificing Elegant Edgecrafters.
2. When Elegant Edgecrafters dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.
3. When Elegant Edgecrafters enters, its fabricate ability triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
4. Resolve the Altar of Dementia ability.
5. Repeat.

This clever loop centers around the versatile Eirdu, Carrier of Dawn // Isilu, Carrier of Twilight, whose backside grants persistent resilience to your other nontoken creatures. When you sacrifice Elegant Edgecrafters to Altar of Dementia, its persist ability brings it straight back from the graveyard, and its fabricate ability immediately drops a +1/+1 counter on it to cancel out the incoming -1/-1 counter. This continuous cycle of death and rebirth fuels Altar of Dementia to mill an opponent's entire library away, all while Eirdu, Carrier of Dawn // Isilu, Carrier of Twilight sits safely on the battlefield providing the crucial recursion engine that makes the whole machinery tick.
