Escape Protocol blinks Eternal Witness each time a land is cycled for one generic mana; Eternal Witness returns the just-cycled land to hand; Bone Miser produces two black mana from the discard to pay the cycling cost on the next iteration. The loop self-funds — each cycle costs one and returns two black, netting mana — and the draw trigger from cycling piles up alongside infinite ETB and LTB triggers. This lands cleanly in Sultai cycling commanders like Gavi, Nest Warden or any goodstuff shell that touches all three colors.

How it works

Land with Cycling Cost that can be paid using one colored mana You can discard down to maximum hand size at end of turn to trigger Bone Miser's abilities many times.

Resolve Bone Miser's ability, adding .
Resolve Escape Protocol's ability, paying to blink Eternal Witness.

Result

Infinite card draw; Near-infinite ETB; Near-infinite LTB

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Fluctuator replaces Bone Miser as the cost-reducer if black mana is a bottleneck — it zeros out the cycling cost entirely and cuts the dependency on discard triggers. Without Bone Miser, the loop needs an external mana source; with it, any cycling land that costs one black to cycle closes the loop. Finish with Thassa's Oracle or any payoff that cares about ETB triggers once the library is drawn.
