How it works

  1. Cast Flicker of Fate 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 Flicker of Fate 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 Flicker of Fate.
  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 brilliant loop begins by casting Flicker of Fate to exile Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward, whose departure immediately triggers the return of Warden of the Eye to the battlefield alongside whatever mana-producing permanents Abdel had previously swallowed. As Warden of the Eye enters, its triggered ability reaches into your graveyard to retrieve Flicker of Fate, setting the stage to restart the cycle. Before the stack resolves, you can tap your recovered nonland permanents for mana to recast the instant, allowing Abdel Adrian's ensuing entry trigger to re-exile everything and flood the board with an endless army of 1/1 Soldier tokens.
