Mortuary is the hinge: when Blasting Station sacrifices Eternal Witness to deal 1 damage, Mortuary returns it to the top of the library so Hit the Mother Lode can immediately exile and recast it for free. The seven Treasures that enter tapped get untapped by Amulet of Vigor, which also untaps Blasting Station when Eternal Witness re-enters, and the Witness itself recovers Hit the Mother Lode from the graveyard — the loop is entirely self-funding at exactly 4RRR each cycle. This is a Jund engine, so expect Worldly Tutor and Vampiric Tutor assembling the pieces while Blasting Station sits on the battlefield doing nothing suspicious until it doesn't.

Result

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

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Blasting Station is the damage outlet but anything that triggers on death or ETB infinitely — Purphoros, God of the Forge off the Witness re-entry alone — closes the game without it. Mortuary is the hardest piece to replace; Tortured Existence cannot sub in here, but if Eternal Witness is removed from the loop, Timeless Witness survives board wipes better and runs identically.
