How it works

  1. Cast Oathsworn Vampire either from your hand or graveyard by paying 1B mana.
  2. Edgar triggers, creating a 1/1 Vampire creature token.
  3. Activate Warren Soultrader by paying 1 life and sacrificing Oathsworn Vampire.
  4. When Oathsworn Vampire dies, Cruel Celebrant triggers, causing each opponent to lose 1 life and you to gain 1 life.
  5. Resolve the Warren Soultrader ability, creating a Treasure token.
  6. Repeat steps 3 through 5 once, sacrificing the Vampire token instead.
  7. Activate two Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding 1B mana.
  8. Repeat.

This elegant loop turns the endless hunger of Warren Soultrader into a lethal engine by leveraging the lifegain from Cruel Celebrant to recast Oathsworn Vampire over and over again from your graveyard. Cruel Celebrant ensures that every sacrifice drains your opponents while replenishing the life you paid into Warren Soultrader, creating a self-sustaining cycle of death and profit. Meanwhile, Edgar Markov sits in the command zone or on the battlefield to provide a steady stream of tokens via his Eminence ability, supplying extra fodder to sacrifice alongside the recurring Vampire.
