On Etymology
So I was thinking about D&D the other day, and something occurred to me: considering where the word comes from, the implementation of Warlocks in 5e is kinda hilarious? Like “Okay, so I’ve made this class that’s based around making a pact with a powerful entity, and you get various boons from drawing on this pact.” “Cool! What’s it called?” “Oathbreaker.”
Now if I were such an eldritch patron, I’d be pretty damn nervous about all this!
What time of year is it? That's right, it's "It's not tomorrow until I fall asleep, so I'm not late" time! Also known as Inktober.
...Of course, when this godawful hellsite decides to crap out on me for hours at a time, that’s decidedly not what it looks like. I swear I had this done last night.
Day 1, "Poisonous," and we're just going straight D&D here. Trying something new with shadows and with clouds. Coin for scale! I love these mini-sketchbooks.

How does that Silver Bordered combo work. I'm not getting it.
Play out your turn normally with Opalesence and Mistmeadow Witch in play. At your second mainphase, cast Topsy Turvey. It’ll be a 3/3 creature due to Opalesence and your turn order will be reversed. Once you reach the end of your untap step, activate Mistmeadow Witch to exile Topsy Turvy. Your turn order is restored, and you will have a full turn again. You’ve already untapped, so upkeep, draw, etc. Once your reach your end step, Topsy Turvy will return to play, thus reversing your turn again.You will get to do this infinitely so long as you keep allowing your untap step to happen.
Rince and repeat. Its not technically an infinite turn combo. But you do get to take an infinitely long recursive turn.

Except noone recieves priorty during the untap step, so this doesn’t actually work.
This totally works! Just... not quite as described. Topsy-Turvy reverses the order of phases, but not the order of steps within phases; combat, for example, still goes beginning-attackers-blockers-damage-end. Hence, the beginning phase still goes untap-upkeep-draw; Mistmeadow Witch can be activated during your upkeep.
