How it works

  1. Activate Woe Strider by sacrificing Archon of Falling Stars.
  2. When Archon of Falling Stars dies, it triggers, returning Dance of the Dead from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  3. When Dance of the Dead enters the battlefield, it triggers, returning Archon of Falling Stars from your graveyard to the battlefield, and attaching Dance of the Dead to it.
  4. Resolve the Woe Strider ability, causing you to scry 1.
  5. Repeat.

This elegant loop is fueled by Woe Strider, whose sacrifice outlet serves as the engine to send your creatures straight to the graveyard. Each time you feed the Archon of Falling Stars to it, the Archon's death trigger fires off to rescue Dance of the Dead from the graveyard. When Dance of the Dead returns to the battlefield, its own enters-the-battlefield ability immediately yanks the Archon right back out of the graveyard and onto the battlefield, creating a self-sustaining cycle of endless sacrifices, entries, and leaves.
