How it works

  1. Cast Saw in Half by paying 2B mana, destroying Verdurous Gearhulk and creating four token copies of it with base power equal to half the destroyed creature's power and base toughness equal to half the destroyed creature's toughness, rounding up each time.
  2. When the Verdurous Gearhulk tokens enter the battlefield, they trigger, putting 32 +1/+1 counters on a creature you control.
  3. At the beginning of your next upkeep, Mayael's Aria triggers, causing you to put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control, gain 10 life and win the game.

This explosive sequence kicks off when you target Verdurous Gearhulk with Saw in Half, converting the mechanical behemoth into a pair of token copies whose numbers are immediately doubled into a staggering four tokens thanks to Primal Vigor's replacement effect. As those four copies flood the battlefield, their entry triggers overlap dramatically with a second doubling from Primal Vigor, letting you pile a massive total of 32 +1/+1 counters onto a single target and effortlessly pushing its power past the critical 20-threshold. All that remains is to reach your next upkeep, where Mayael's Aria easily scales up through its life-gain milestone straight into its ultimate win-the-game condition.
