Ratchet, Field Medic // Ratchet, Rescue Racer + Preston, the Vanisher + Soul's Attendant + Ephemerate

Ratchet, Field Medic // Ratchet, Rescue Racer

Preston, the Vanisher

Soul's Attendant

Ephemerate

How it works

1. Cast Ephemerate by paying , blinking Ratchet, causing it to enter the battlefield as Ratchet, Field Medic.
2. When Ratchet, Field Medic enters the battlefield, Preston and Soul's Attendant trigger.
3. Resolve the Preston trigger, creating a token copy of Ratchet, Field Medic that is a 0/1 Illusion.
4. Put the nontoken Ratchet into your graveyard due to the legend rule.
5. Choose not to return Ratchet to the command zone from your graveyard.
6. When the Ratchet, Field Medic token enters the battlefield, Soul's Attendant triggers, causing you to gain 1 life.
7. The Ratchet, Field Medic token triggers, causing you to convert it into Ratchet, Rescue Racer, and return Ratchet from your graveyard to the battlefield.
8. When Ratchet, Field Medic enters the battlefield, Preston and Soul's Attendant trigger.
9. Resolve the Preston trigger, creating a token copy of Ratchet, Field Medic that is a 0/1 Illusion.
10. Put the nontoken Ratchet into your graveyard due to the legend rule.
11. Choose not to return Ratchet to the command zone from your graveyard.
12. The Ratchet, Rescue Racer token triggers, as well as Soul's Attendant.
13. Resolve the Ratchet, Rescue Racer trigger, causing you to convert it into Ratchet, Field Medic.
14. Put one of the Ratchet, Field Medic tokens into your graveyard due to the legend rule.
15. Resolve the Soul's Attendant trigger, causing you to gain 1 life.
16. Repeat from step 7.

This clever loop turns a simple blink into an unstoppable self-sustaining engine by bouncing Ratchet between its two faces. When you cast Ephemerate to jump-start the process, Preston, the Vanisher duplicates the arriving robot while Soul's Attendant hands you the vital life needed to trigger Ratchet, Field Medic's graveyard recursion. This constantly cycles the original Ratchet back from the graveyard while its converted vehicle side, Ratchet, Rescue Racer, smoothly flips right back via artifact-to-graveyard and life-gained triggers, cleanly bypassing the legend rule to flood the board with infinite triggers.
