  How it works

  Before you start

  Your life total is at least 2. You have more cards in hand than your maximum hand size.

  Steps

  Proceed to your next cleanup step, causing you to discard cards down to your maximum hand size. Containment Construct triggers for each card discarded this way. Resolve the first trigger, exiling the discarded card. Ketramose triggers, causing you to draw a card and lose 1 life. Sheoldred triggers, causing you to gain 2 life. Resolve all remaining Containment Construct abilities, if applicable, choosing not to exile anything. Once the stack has emptied and all players pass priority, you will still be in the cleanup step and thus need to discard cards down to your maximum hand size. Repeat from step 2.
