Verdurous Gearhulk + Saw in Half + Simic Ascendancy + Adrix and Nev, Twincasters

Verdurous Gearhulk

Saw in Half

Simic Ascendancy

Adrix and Nev, Twincasters

How it works

1. Cast Saw in Half by paying 2, 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.
3. Resolve a Verdurous Gearhulk trigger, putting four +1/+1 counters on any creature(s) you control.
4. Simic Ascendancy triggers, putting four growth counters on itself.
5. Repeat steps 3-4 for each remaining trigger.
6. At the beginning of your next upkeep, Simic Ascendancy triggers, causing you to win the game.

This potent sequence relies on multiplying token creation to flood the board with massive enter-the-battlefield triggers, all amplified by Adrix and Nev, Twincasters to double your token output when Saw in Half destroys Verdurous Gearhulk. As those fresh Gearhulk tokens hit the battlefield, their entry triggers distribute a flurry of +1/+1 counters onto your creatures. This sudden influx of counters immediately satisfies Simic Ascendancy's second ability, rapidly stacking growth counters onto the enchantment to secure an alternative victory during your next upkeep.
