How it plays

The Fourth Doctor: You may look at the top card of your library any time. Would You Like A . . . ? — Once each turn, you may play a historic land or cast a historic spell from the top of your library. When you do, create a Food token. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic.)

Sarah Jane Smith: Whenever you cast a historic spell, investigate. This ability triggers only once each turn. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic. To investigate, create a Clue token. It's an artifact with "2, Sacrifice this artifact: Draw a card.") Doctor's companion (You can have two commanders if the other is the Doctor.)

Wins through: Infinite +1/+1 counters on certain creatures · Infinite mana creatures you control can produce except ones that attacked or entered the battlefield this turn · Infinite untap of creatures you control except ones that attacked or entered the battlefield this turn
