How it works

  1. Activate Mystic Sanctuary by tapping it, adding U mana.
  2. Cast Time Warp by paying its mana cost, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
  3. Cast Ghostly Flicker by paying 2U mana, blinking Mystic Sanctuary and Warden of the Eye.
  4. When Warden of the Eye and Mystic Sanctuary enter the battlefield, they trigger.
  5. Resolve the Warden of the Eye trigger, returning Ghostly Flicker from your graveyard to your hand.
  6. Resolve the Mystic Sanctuary trigger, putting Time Warp from your graveyard onto the top of your library.
  7. Move to your next turn, drawing Time Warp during your draw step.
  8. Repeat.

This brilliant loop bends time to your will by recycling your spells through a clever sequence of blinks and recursion. When you cast Ghostly Flicker to exile both Mystic Sanctuary and Warden of the Eye, their fresh entries back onto the battlefield trigger their respective abilities to effortlessly stack the deck: Mystic Sanctuary places Time Warp right back on top of your library for your upcoming draw step, while Warden of the Eye plucks Ghostly Flicker out of the graveyard and directly into your hand. Because Mystic Sanctuary's untap condition is met by your other Islands, you are able to continuously replay Time Warp and repeat the entire process on each extra turn you take, locking down the game in a perpetual cycle of endless actions.
