How it works
Prerequisites
- You have any number of other nonland permanents that enter the battlefield untapped, and that can collectively tap to produce enough mana to cast Essence Flux exiled by Abdel Adrian.
Steps
- 1Cast Essence Flux by paying its mana cost, blinking Abdel Adrian.
- 2Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, returning Scrivener and all other cards that were exiled with it to the battlefield.
- 3Abdel Adrian and Scrivener trigger.
- 4Resolve the Scrivener trigger, returning Essence Flux from your graveyard to your hand.
- 5Holding priority, activate any number of nonland permanents you control by tapping them, adding at least enough mana to cast Essence Flux.
- 6Resolve the Abdel Adrian trigger, exiling Scrivener and the mana-producing permanents until Abdel Adrian leaves the battlefield, and creating a 1/1 Soldier creature token for each permanent exiled this way.
- 7Repeat.
