How it works

  1. Cast Illusion of Choice by paying U mana, causing you to choose how players vote this turn and drawing a card.
  2. Cast Magister of Worth by paying 4W manaB mana.
  3. When Magister of Worth enters, it triggers.
  4. Holding priority, activate Umbral Collar Zealot by sacrificing Magister of Worth and any number of other creatures.
  5. Resolve the Magister of Worth trigger, having each player vote for grace, returning all creatures from graveyards to the battlefield.
  6. Resolve all abilities from step 4.
  7. Repeat from 3.

This clever loop leverages Illusion of Choice to completely rig Magister of Worth's will of the council trigger, ensuring "grace" always wins the vote to flood the battlefield with every creature card from your graveyard. While Umbral Collar Zealot provides the necessary sacrifice outlet to send Magister of Worth back to the graveyard alongside any other creatures, its surveil ability also helps filter your draws and set up your recursion engine. Because Illusion of Choice lets you dictate every vote, you can endlessly loop these enters-the-battlefield triggers to generate infinite creature loops and recur your entire graveyard at will.
