Guardian of the Forgotten + Dissection Tools

Guardian of the Forgotten

Dissection Tools

How it works

1. Activate Dissection Tools' equip ability by sacrificing the creature it is attached to, targeting another creature you control.
2. When the creature dies, Guardian of the Forgotten triggers, causing you to manifest the top card of your library.
3. Resolve the Dissection Tools trigger, attaching it to the targeted creature.
4. Repeat.

This clever loop turns the self-sacrifice cost of Dissection Tools into an engine for relentless board churn, fueled by Guardian of the Forgotten watching over your modified creatures. Because the equipment's equip cost asks you to sacrifice a creature—which immediately makes it a dying modified creature thanks to the stat boost and keywords it provides—Guardian of the Forgotten is constantly triggered to manifest the top of your library. Each iteration of this sacrifice and re-attachment cycle feeds your death and entry triggers while digging deeper into your deck, turning the humble tool into a perpetual motion machine of sacrifices.
