How it works

  1. Activate Nykthos's second ability by paying 2 and tapping it, adding at least U manaU manaU manaU manaU mana.
  2. Activate Meloku by paying 1 and returning Nykthos from the battlefield to your hand, creating a 1/1 Illusion creature token.
  3. Activate High Market's second ability by tapping it and sacrificing the Illusion.
  4. When the Illusion dies, Sakashima the Impostor and Minn's second abilities trigger.
  5. Holding priority, activate Meloku by paying 1 and returning High Market from the battlefield to your hand, creating a 1/1 Illusion creature token.
  6. Resolve the Sakashima the Impostor and Minn triggers, putting Nykthos and High Market from your hand onto the battlefield.
  7. Repeat.

This clever loop is orchestrated by Minn, Wily Illusionist, whose second ability turns the death of an Illusion into a free-cheat engine for permanent cards from your hand. By utilizing Meloku the Clouded Mirror to bounce and recast tokens alongside High Market and Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, you can continuously sacrifice and redeploy your lands to generate an explosive surplus of mana. Meanwhile, Sakashima the Impostor works alongside Minn's trigger stack to ensure your vital pieces are instantly returned to the battlefield, keeping the engine running indefinitely.
