Turning cheap one-mana targeting cantrips into instant permanent duplication creates one of the most explosive, resilient combo setups in the Mono-Blue color identity. On Moxfield’s highest-rated cEDH and high-power charts, Orvar, the All-Form from Kaldheim stands as a premier commander that converts low-cost targeted instants into infinite mana, infinite card draw, and unstoppable board cloning.

As a 3/3 Shapeshifter legend with Changeling costing four mana (), Orvar triggers whenever you cast an instant or sorcery that targets one or more other permanents you control, creating a token copy of one of those targeted permanents. By targeting your own lands, mana rocks, or key creatures with cheap untap spells like Twiddle or Buyback spells like Whim of Volrath and Clockspinning, Orvar generates exponential mana and infinite token loops in a single rotation.

Here is the strategic operational blueprint of Moxfield’s premier Orvar list, detailing how to duplicate mana bases, abuse Buyback mechanics, and storm off to instant victory.

1. Core Mechanics & Strategic Phases

Succeeding with Orvar requires cheap targeted cantrips, high-yield mana rocks, Buyback spells, and robust countermagic protection.

  • Early Game (Turns 1–2): Ramp quickly with Sol Ring, High Tide, and fast mana. Set up targeting spells like Twiddle or Thermal Flux.

  • Mid Game (Turns 3–4): Deploy Orvar. Target your own lands or mana rocks to double your available mana per spell cast, building massive mana advantage.

  • Late Game (Turns 4+): Cast Buyback spells like Whim of Volrath or Clockspinning targeting Coveted Jewel or lands. Loop the Buyback cost infinitely to draw your entire deck and resolve lethal win conditions.

2. Moxfield Highlights: Permanent Duplication & Loop Engines

The highest-rated community lists on Moxfield optimize Orvar by maximizing cheap single-target cantrips and leveraging high-yield mana targets.

Whim of Volrath / Clockspinning

Infinite Buyback loop enablers. When paired with Orvar and a permanent that produces three or more mana (like Coveted Jewel or boosted lands), paying the Buyback cost creates net-positive mana and infinite token copies.

Coveted Jewel

The ultimate duplication target. Copying Coveted Jewel with Orvar draws three cards and adds three mana immediately, instantly unlocking deterministic deck draws and win conditions.

Twiddle / Thermal Flux / Dream’s Grip

One-mana targeting triggers. Functions as 1-mana ramp spells when targeting lands or mana rocks while Orvar is on the field, triggering instant token duplication for minimal investment.

Fierce Guardianship / Force of Will

Free countermagic defense suite. Keeps Orvar protected on the board so you can safely launch infinite Buyback combos without interruption.
