Exile Bioshift with Elite Arcanist. Use it's ability to move counters from Protean Hydra to Sage of Hours. Commence lockdown.

does not work... the hydra only gets more counters when it is damaged, it isnt infinite unless you have infinite mana to go with it... or Gilder Bairn or something like that

Extract from the Gatherer:

01/10/2009 Protean Hydra's last ability triggers whenever a +1/+1
counter is removed from it for any reason, not just when
a +1/+1 counter is removed by its second ability.


01/10/2009 If multiple +1/+1 counters are removed from Protean
Hydra at once, its last ability will trigger that many
times.

@Draco Lich: why it doesn't work?

Is it considered casting a spell when using elite arcanist to copy bioshift? Because if it is considered casting the heroic ability of sage of hours triggers too.

I'm pretty sure it does because Arcanist explicitly states that you CAST a copy of the spell. The important bit isn't that the spell's a copy, it's that the spell is cast targeting the hydra and the sage.
