Flickerform

Enchantment — Aura1 generic manaWhite mana

The clever trick buried in this Aura is that it protects itself. Most blink effects exile a creature and leave whatever was bolted onto it behind, scattering Auras and Equipment to the graveyard or the void. This one accounts for the package: it hauls the host and every Aura riding on it into exile together, then reassembles the whole stack at the next end step. Because Flickerform is itself an Aura attached to that creature, it gets carried along in its own exile clause and comes back stapled to the same body, ready to fire again. The result is a reusable blink button that re-triggers an entire creature's worth of enters-the-battlefield abilities while keeping the rest of its enchantment wardrobe intact, all at instant speed when you need to dodge removal. What keeps the engine from snowballing is its raw cost: four mana to flicker, on top of the two to suit up, makes this a deliberately slow loop, the kind of investment that pays off over many turns rather than in a single explosive one. This is white recursion-through-exile in its purest form, treating blinking not as a tempo play but as a value loop, where the same death-and-rebirth happens on demand for as long as you can keep the mana flowing.
