Conduit of Worlds lets The One Ring be recast from the graveyard each turn, with Krark-Clan Ironworks covering the cost by sacrificing the Ring itself for two colorless toward the four needed. The catch is explicit in the steps: the loop's own mechanics bar casting any spells, so the protection from everything is permanent and personal but the board state stalls completely. Green artifact shells running Conduit of Worlds have better ways to spend these three slots.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Conduit of Worlds pairs cleanly with Krark-Clan Ironworks in loops that actually kill — add Scrap Trawler and Myr Retriever for the real KCI engine instead. If The One Ring is the draw piece, pair it with Erratic Portal or Erratic Cyclops lines that bounce it without locking spell casting entirely.
