How it works

  1. Cast Blur by paying its mana cost, blinking Abdel Adrian.
  2. Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, returning Warden of the Eye and all other cards that were exiled with it to the battlefield.
  3. Abdel Adrian and Warden of the Eye trigger.
  4. Resolve the Warden of the Eye trigger, returning Blur from your graveyard to your hand.
  5. Holding priority, activate any number of nonland permanents you control by tapping them, adding at least enough mana to cast Blur.
  6. Resolve the Abdel Adrian trigger, exiling Warden of the Eye and the mana-producing permanents until Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, and creating a 1/1 Soldier creature token for each permanent exiled this way.
  7. Repeat.

This ingenious loop turns a simple blink spell into an unstoppable engine by leveraging Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward to repeatedly cycle your board in and out of exile. Every iteration begins when Blur resets Abdel Adrian, triggering Warden of the Eye to retrieve Blur right back from your graveyard while also drawing you a card. Meanwhile, Abdel Adrian's own entrance exiles your mana-producing permanents along with Warden of the Eye, which you can tap for mana in response to flood your board with a growing army of 1/1 Soldier tokens.
