Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle is the engine: every historic spell cast off Sol Ring's colorless returns Aether Channeler from the graveyard, and Aether Channeler's ETB bounces Sol Ring or the auxiliary artifact back to hand to restart the chain. Yahenni, Undying Partisan serves as the sacrifice outlet, eating Aether Channeler each loop and gaining indestructibility as a bonus. The whole engine runs on a single Sol Ring activation and a one-mana artifact, which nearly every artifact Commander deck runs by default.

Recipe

How it works

01

Prerequisites

Artifact that can be Cast Using {C}

02

Steps

  1. Activate Yahenni by sacrificing Aether Channeler, giving Yahenni indestructible until end of turn.
  2. Activate Sol Ring by tapping it, adding {C}{C}.
  3. Cast the other artifact with MV<=1 by paying at most {1}.
  4. Teshar triggers, returning Aether Channeler from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  5. When Aether Channeler enters the battlefield, it triggers, returning Sol Ring from the battlefield to your hand.
  6. Activate Yahenni by sacrificing Aether Channeler, giving Yahenni indestructible until end of turn.
  7. Cast Sol Ring by paying {1}.
  8. Teshar triggers, returning Aether Channeler from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  9. When Aether Channeler enters the battlefield, it triggers, returning the other artifact from the battlefield to your hand.
  10. Repeat.

03

Result

Infinite death triggers; Infinite ETB; Infinite LTB; Infinite sacrifice triggers; Infinite storm count

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Any artifact with mana value 1 or less that taps for colorless can slot in as the second artifact alongside Sol Ring — Mana Crypt, Jeweled Lotus, or even Ornithopter if another mana source covers Teshar's trigger. The loop produces no mana on net, so pair it with Zulaport Cutthroat or Corpse Knight for a kill off the infinite death triggers, or use the infinite storm count with Aetherflux Reservoir.
