Sundial of the Infinite
Artifact
Players keep running into the same wall with Sundial of the Infinite: they read 'end the turn' and assume it's a tidy fast-forward button. It's not. It exiles everything on the stack, ends effects, and skips the rest of the turn, so questions about delayed triggers, evoke, the legend rule, and combat steps pile up fast. This is a fifteen-year-old card that still generates rules homework.

The take
Sundial is a fine-print artifact: brilliant if you read exactly what it does, a self-inflicted wound if you assume it behaves like a counterspell.
Fifteen years old and still under 3,000th on EDHRec, a rank earned by rules interactions alone
Plays well with
-
Obeka, Brute Chronologist
Obeka ties its own activated ability to ending the turn, so pairing it with Sundial lets you take as little of your own turn as you'd like.
-
Zirilan of the Claw
You can respond to the delayed trigger that exiles the Dragon you tutored for, and Sundial's stack exile keeps that Dragon on the battlefield.
-
Fanatic of Mogis
Sundial lets you attack into blockers without losing him, since he can be bounced at the end of the turn.

Sundial of the Infinite Rulings
- Sep 22, 2011
Ending the turn this way means the following things happen in order: 1) All spells and abilities on the stack are exiled. This includes spells and abilities that can't be countered. 2) All attacking and blocking creatures are removed from combat. 3) State-based actions are checked. No player gets priority, and no triggered abilities are put onto the stack. 4) The current phase and/or step ends. The game skips straight to the cleanup step. The cleanup step happens in its entirety.
- Sep 22, 2011
If Sundial of the Infinite's ability is activated before the end step, any "at the beginning of the end step"-triggered abilities won't get the chance to trigger that turn because the end step is skipped. Those abilities will trigger at the beginning of the end step of the next turn. The same is true of abilities that trigger at the beginning of other phases or steps (except upkeep).
- Sep 22, 2011
If any triggered abilities do trigger during this process, they're put onto the stack during the cleanup step. If this happens, players will have a chance to cast spells and activate abilities, then there will be another cleanup step before the turn finally ends.
- Sep 22, 2011
The earliest that you can activate Sundial of the Infinite's ability is during your upkeep step, after abilities that trigger "at the beginning of your upkeep" have been put onto the stack but before they resolve.
- Sep 22, 2011
Though spells and abilities that are exiled won't get a chance to resolve, they don't count as being "countered."
