Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle + Aether Channeler + Sol Ring + Woe Strider
4-card combo · WUB
Verdict
Yes — this 4-card loop generates infinite ETB, death, and storm triggers in any Teshar shell that already runs Sol Ring.

Woe Strider sacrifices Aether Channeler as the free outlet; Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle returns Aether Channeler each time a historic spell resolves, and Aether Channeler's bounce mode alternates between returning Sol Ring and the second artifact to hand, keeping the mana loop alive. The engine needs a second artifact with mana value 1 or less castable for one colorless — Ornithopter of Paradise, Spellbook, or any other zero-drop artifact fills the role. Every ETB, LTB, and death trigger fires indefinitely, which feeds whatever payoff the deck is built around.

Infinite death triggers; Infinite ETB; Infinite LTB; Infinite sacrifice triggers; Infinite scry 1; Infinite storm count
Variations
Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines
Myr Retriever or Phyrexian Walker work as the fifth piece if the spare artifact slot is flexible. Altar of Dementia or Zulaport Cutthroat converts the infinite death triggers into a mill or drain win — the loop itself produces no direct damage, so a dedicated payoff is mandatory to close the game.
