How it works

  1. Activate Kaya the Inexorable's first ability by putting a loyalty counter on it, putting a ghostform counter on Wormfang Manta.
  2. Activate Woe Strider by sacrificing Wormfang Manta.
  3. When Wormfang Manta dies, its second ability and its ghostform ability trigger.
  4. Resolve the ghostform trigger, returning Wormfang Manta from your graveyard to your hand and creating a 1/1 Spirit creature token.
  5. Resolve the second trigger, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
  6. Resolve the Woe Strider ability, causing you to scry 1.
  7. Cast Wormfang Manta by paying 5U manaU mana.
  8. Wormfang Manta's first ability does not trigger due to Torpor Orb.
  9. Repeat each turn.

This loop centers around the clever interaction between Wormfang Manta and Kaya the Inexorable, where the Manta's death-triggered extra turn can be farmed repeatedly by placing a ghostform counter on it with Kaya's +1 ability. To keep the engine clean, Torpor Orb quietly silences the Manta's drawback when it enters the battlefield, ensuring you never accidentally skip your turns. Meanwhile, Woe Strider acts as the reliable sacrifice outlet to send the Manta to the graveyard so it can return to your hand, ready to be recast on the extra turn you just secured.
