Ghostly Flicker blinks Temple of the False God and Mystic Sanctuary for 3 mana; Mystic Sanctuary's enters-the-battlefield trigger puts Ghostly Flicker back on top of the library, and Tatyova's two landfall triggers draw it immediately and gain 2 life. The engine is self-contained as long as three other Islands are in play — fetch lands, duals with the Island subtype, and Breeding Pool all count toward that threshold.

How it works

Repeat.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Meloku the Clouded Mirror or Patron of the Moon can replace Temple of the False God as the second blink target if colorless mana is scarce. Aetherflux Reservoir is the clean kill once the loop is running; without a storm payoff already on board, the loop draws the deck but doesn't end the game on its own.
