How it works

  1. Cast Essence Flux 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 Essence Flux 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 Essence Flux.
  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 turns a simple blink spell into an unstoppable engine by leveraging Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward to continuously cycle your board in and out of exile. When you cast Essence Flux to blink Abdel Adrian, his departure triggers Warden of the Eye to return the spell right back to your hand, ready to be recast. Meanwhile, Abdel Adrian's re-entry allows you to sweep up Warden of the Eye alongside your other mana-producing permanents, letting you tap them for resources before they vanish and flooding the board with an endless army of 1/1 Soldier tokens.
