Enduring Renewal turns Diamond Lion's sacrifice into a free recursion loop: Lion dies, Enduring Renewal returns it to hand, and it recasts for 2 of the 3 mana it just made, netting one colored mana per cycle. Lightning Greaves enables the first activation if Lion enters the battlefield without summoning sickness — equip for 0, tap, sacrifice, repeat. White has almost no other infinite-mana engines, which is exactly why this sees play.

Recipe

How it works

01

Prerequisites

02

Steps

  1. If needed, activate Lightning Greaves' equip ability by paying {0}, attaching it to Diamond Lion.
  2. Activate Diamond Lion by tapping it, sacrificing it and discarding your hand, adding three mana of any color.
  3. Diamond Lion dies, triggering Enduring Renewal, returning Diamond Lion from your graveyard to your hand.
  4. Cast Diamond Lion by paying {2}.
  5. Repeat.

Result

Infinite colored mana; Infinite death triggers; Infinite ETB; Infinite LTB; Infinite sacrifice triggers; Infinite storm count

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

The loop needs a kill condition — Altar of Dementia mills the table on infinite death triggers, and Blasting Station finishes with infinite untap damage. If Lightning Greaves is removed before the first activation, the loop stalls for a full turn cycle; Swiftfoot Boots is the redundant backup, though it can't equip at 0.
