How it works

  1. Cast Temporal Manipulation by paying its mana cost.
  2. Kykar triggers, exiling Warden of the Eye.
  3. Resolve Temporal Manipulation, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
  4. At the beginning of your end step, Kykar triggers, returning Warden of the Eye from exile to the battlefield.
  5. When Warden of the Eye enters, it triggers, returning Temporal Manipulation from your graveyard to your hand.
  6. Repeat each turn.

This loop is a masterclass in recycling your best spells, turning Kykar, Zephyr Awakener into both a blink engine and a token generator whenever you cast a noncreature spell. By pointing Kykar's triggered ability at Warden of the Eye when you cast Temporal Manipulation, you tuck the Warden safely away until the end step. When the Warden finally returns, its enters-the-battlefield ability triggers to fish Temporal Manipulation right back out of your graveyard and into your hand. Because Temporal Manipulation grants you an extra turn, you can simply recast the spell, repeat the process on each successive turn, and lock down the game with an endless procession of your own turns.
