Jegantha, the Wellspring taps for one of each color, which exactly pays Horde of Notions's activated ability to recast it from the graveyard; Ashnod's Altar converts the sacrifice into two colorless, netting mana on every loop. Lightning Greaves at zero equip cost removes summoning sickness the moment Jegantha returns, which is the only reason the loop doesn't stall — without it, Jegantha can't tap until the following turn.

Variations
Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines
Swiftfoot Boots cannot substitute here because its equip cost is one, which breaks the mana neutrality of the loop. Any death-trigger payoff closes the game — Purphoros, God of the Forge pings the table to zero with each Jegantha ETB, and Zulaport Cutthroat or Blood Artist drain on the sacrifices without needing an extra mana investment.
