How it works

  1. Activate Umbral Collar Zealot by sacrificing Woodfall Primus.
  2. When Woodfall Primus dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield without a -1/-1 counter on it due to Vizier of Remedies.
  3. When Woodfall Primus enters, it triggers, destroying a noncreature permanent.
  4. Resolve the Umbral Collar Zealot ability.
  5. Repeat.

This loop turns your battlefield into a relentless engine of destruction by exploiting the interplay between persist and replacement effects. While Umbral Collar Zealot provides the necessary sacrifice outlet to keep the cycle moving, it's Vizier of Remedies that alters the math of Woodfall Primus's persist ability, ensuring the giant tree returns to the battlefield completely free of -1/-1 counters every single time it dies. Because Woodfall Primus enters the battlefield with a fresh slate, its entry trigger fires repeatedly to wipe away every noncreature permanent your opponents control, all while setting up your draws through the surveil actions of Umbral Collar Zealot.
