Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle recurs Aether Channeler each time a historic spell resolves; Aether Channeler's ETB bounces Sol Ring back to hand, which then recasts to trigger Teshar again. Altar of Dementia is the kill — each loop sacrifices Aether Channeler to mill equal to its power, and with infinite iterations, every library empties. This fits naturally into white-blue artifact-heavy builds that already want Teshar as a value engine.

Variations
Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines
The fifth slot is deliberately thin — any artifact with mana value 1 or less serves as the second bounce target alongside Sol Ring, so Mana Crypt or Tormod's Crypt are easy redundancies. If milling out the table is the wrong call for the board state, swap Altar of Dementia for Blasting Station or drop Aether Channeler's bounce onto a creature that generates a different infinite resource — the Teshar loop shell stays identical.
