How it works

  1. Activate Marvin using Avatar Kuruk's ability by paying 20 minus 1 for each creature and/or artifact you can tap while activating it, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
  2. At the beginning of your end step, Conjurer's Closet triggers, blinking Marvin.
  3. Repeat each turn.

This ingenious loop lets you seize infinite turns by letting Marvin, Murderous Mimic inherit the formidable Waterbend exhaust ability of Avatar Kuruk (the transformed side of The Legend of Kuruk). Because Marvin is a creature, you can bypass the once-per-game restriction of the original exhaust ability by using Conjurer's Closet to blink Marvin at the beginning of each end step, resetting its identity when it returns to the battlefield. This clever reset allows you to repeatedly pay the massive mana cost—discounted by tapping your other artifacts and creatures—to take infinite extra turns and lock your opponents out of the game entirely.
