No rest for those who suffer in the service of the inscrutable God of Passage. These hapless mortals are doomed to live and die in an endless cycle, longing for an oblivion that never lasts.

Control your opponent's threats with ETB effects from small, cheap creatures, then let them die and return to your hand via Athreos or another recursion engine. Attack in the later game with big flyers, Athreos, and/or creatures you steal with Mimic Vat.
