Tower Winder + Kheru Goldkeeper + Six + Command Tower + Phyrexian Altar

5-card combo · BGU

Verdict

Yes — this 5-card loop generates infinite mana, infinite Treasures, and infinite death triggers from a surprisingly compact Sultai shell.

Tower Winder casts itself from the graveyard by discarding Command Tower; Kheru Goldkeeper turns each discard and each creature entering into a Treasure token, netting two per loop. Tower Winder's ETB then returns Command Tower to hand, and Phyrexian Altar sacrifices Tower Winder to reset the cycle — two Treasures cover the {1}{G} cost each time with mana to spare. Any Sultai commander that incidentally runs Phyrexian Altar and Kheru Goldkeeper is a candidate, though assembling all five pieces is the real ask.

  6. Activate two Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding {1}{G}.

Result

Infinite LTB; Infinite ETB; Infinite colored mana; Infinite sacrifice triggers; Infinite death triggers; Infinite storm count; Infinite self-discard triggers; Infinite Treasure tokens

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Six is the mandatory redundancy piece here — its role is keeping the loop alive via the discard trigger count, so there's no clean swap. If Phyrexian Altar is removed, Ashnod's Altar can substitute for the sacrifice outlet but loses the colored mana production, requiring Treasure sinks to cover color. Close with Marionette Master, Blood Artist, or any death-trigger payoff already on the battlefield — the loop floods the board with Treasures but needs a drain effect to actually end the game.
