Hit the Mother Lode casts Eternal Witness for free off the top of the library and creates seven tapped Treasures; Amulet of Vigor untaps all seven immediately, and Mortuary guarantees Eternal Witness returns to the top of the library after Viscera Seer sacrifices it. The Eternal Witness trigger puts Hit the Mother Lode back to hand, and the Treasures pay the 4RRR to recast it — the loop is self-sustaining at no net mana cost once it starts. Commanders like Prossh, Skyraider of Kher or Korvold, Fae-Cursed King sit in the right colors and care deeply about every sacrifice trigger firing.

Recipe

How it works

01

Prerequisites

02

Steps

  1. Activate Viscera Seer by sacrificing Eternal Witness.
  2. When Eternal Witness dies, Mortuary triggers, putting Eternal Witness on top of your library from your graveyard.
  3. Resolve the Viscera Seer ability, causing you to scry 1.
  4. Cast Hit the Mother Lode by paying {4}{R}{R}{R}, exiling Eternal Witness from the top of your library and casting it without paying its mana cost, and creating seven tapped Treasure artifact tokens.
  5. When Eternal Witness and the Treasures enter the battlefield, Amulet of Vigor triggers seven times and Eternal Witness triggers once.
  6. Resolve all Amulet of Vigor triggers, untapping the Treasures.
  7. Resolve the Eternal Witness trigger, returning Hit the Mother Lode from your graveyard to your hand.
  8. Activate seven Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding {4}{R}{R}{R}.
  9. Repeat.

Result

Infinite +1/+1 counters on a creature; Infinite death triggers; Infinite ETB; Infinite LTB; Infinite magecraft triggers; Infinite sacrifice triggers; Infinite scry 1; Infinite storm count

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Viscera Seer can be swapped for any free sacrifice outlet — Carrion Feeder or Altar of Dementia keeps the loop intact and adds the scry or mill angle respectively. The infinite storm count and magecraft triggers make Aria of Flame or Grapeshot the cleanest kills; the infinite +1/+1 counters destination is any counter-hungry creature already on the battlefield, so having one present before starting is non-negotiable.
