Commander Spellbook ↗How it works
Before you start
Excava cannot be blocked and killed by an opponent. You have 5 or less life.
Steps
At the beginning of your upkeep, Second Chance triggers, causing you to sacrifice it and get an extra turn after this one. Declare Excava as an attacker. It triggers, returning Second Chance from your graveyard to the battlefield. It won't enter with a finality counter due to Solemnity. Repeat each turn.
