The 3 combo pieces
What must be in place
You have enough mana to cast Nexus of Fate and the self-suspending card, if needed, during the first turn.
How to execute it
- Cast the self-suspending card by paying its mana cost if its in your hand, or any other spell otherwise if you have not cast a spell this turn.
- Cast Nexus of Fate by paying its mana cost.
- Taigam triggers, copying Nexus of Fate and then exiling it with four time counters on it and giving it suspend.
- Resolve the copy of Nexus of Fate, causing you to take an extra turn after this one.
- Move to your next turn. At the beginning of that turn's upkeep, Nexus of Fate and the self-suspending card's suspend abilities trigger, removing a time counter from each of them.
- Activate The Tenth Doctor by paying {7}, removing three time counters from Nexus of Fate and the self-suspending card, triggering their suspend abilities.
- Resolve the self-suspending card's suspend trigger, causing you to cast it from exile without paying its mana cost, and eventually exile it with time counters on it.
- Resolve the Nexus of Fate's suspend trigger, causing you to cast it from exile without paying its mana cost.
- Repeat from step 3.
