Displacer Kitten is the engine: every noncreature spell cast blinks a creature, which recycles Snap and Cloud of Faeries through Eternal Witness to keep the loop feeding itself. Snap bounces Cloud of Faeries to hand and untaps two lands; Cloud of Faeries re-enters and untaps them again, with Lotus Petal patching the mana math each cycle. The combo lives in Simic spellslinger or tempo shells — any deck already running Eternal Witness and cheap cantrips is halfway there.

Recipe

How it works

01

Prerequisites

You control up to two lands that can tap to produce at least {1}{U}.

02

Steps

  1. Activate up to two lands by tapping them, adding at least {1}{U}.
  2. Cast Snap by paying {1}{U}.
  3. Displacer Kitten triggers, blinking Eternal Witness.
  4. When Eternal Witness enters the battlefield, it triggers, returning Lotus Petal from your graveyard to your hand.
  5. Resolve Snap, returning Cloud of Faeries from the battlefield to your hand, and untapping two lands you control.
  6. Activate up to two lands by tapping them, adding at least {1}{U}.
  7. Cast Lotus Petal by paying {0}.
  8. Displacer Kitten triggers, blinking Eternal Witness.
  9. When Eternal Witness enters the battlefield, it triggers, returning Snap from your graveyard to your hand.
  10. Activate Lotus Petal by tapping and sacrificing it, adding one mana of any color.
  11. Cast Cloud of Faeries by paying {1}{U}.
  12. When Cloud of Faeries enters the battlefield, it triggers, untapping two lands you control.
  13. Repeat.
  14. You may instead bounce any creature you don't control to its owner's hand instead of bouncing the generic creature, as long as your opponents control creatures.

03

Result

Infinite LTB; Infinite ETB; Infinite colored mana; Infinite storm count; Infinite magecraft triggers; Return all creatures you don't control to their owner's hand; Infinite mana lands you control can produce; Infinite untap of lands you control

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

The bounce clause is worth noting: if opponents control creatures, Snap can target those instead of Cloud of Faeries, clearing the board before the loop ends. Replacing Cloud of Faeries with Peregrine Drake or Palinchron tightens the mana requirements if the two-land restriction is a recurring bottleneck. Add Thassa's Oracle or Brain Freeze as the closer — the loop mills the library and generates storm count, so either line is clean.
