  • Steps

    How does this combo work?

    • 1
      Declare Zethi as an attacker.
    • 2
      Zethi's last ability triggers, causing you to pay {3}{w} to cast a copy of Cosmic Intervention, creating a replacement effect that is active this turn.
    • 3
      Move to your postcombat phase.
    • 4
      Cast Walk the Aeons with buyback by paying {4}{u}{u} and sacrificing three Islands, putting the Islands in exile instead of the graveyard and creating a delayed triggered ability due to Cosmic Intervention's replacement effect.
    • 5
      Resolve Walk the Aeons, causing you to take an extra turn after this one and returning Walk the Aeons to your hand.
    • 6
      At the beginning of your end step, Cosmic Intervention's delayed triggered ability triggers, returning the exiled Islands from exile to the battlefield.
    • 7
      Repeat each turn.
