Memory Lapse

Tidal Barracuda

How it works

1. During the opponent's end step immediately before your turn, cast Approach of the Second Sun by paying 6 using Tidal Barracuda.
2. In response, cast Memory Lapse by paying its mana cost, putting Approach of the Sun on top of your library.
3. In your draw step, draw Approach of the Second Sun.
4. Cast Approach of the Second Sun by paying 6, winning the game.

This clever win relies on Tidal Barracuda to let you cast sorceries at instant speed during your opponent's end step, opening the door to play Approach of the Second Sun from your hand. Before that first casting can resolve, you respond by targeting it with Memory Lapse, which neatly bypasses the usual rule of burying it deep in your library and instead places it directly on top. When your draw step arrives, you effortlessly draw Approach of the Second Sun right back into your hand, ready to cast it a second time and instantly claim victory.
