Torchling + Dual Casting + Jeska's Will

3-card combo · R

Verdict

Yes — this 3-card loop exiles the library and produces infinite red mana as long as an opponent is holding three or more cards.

Dual Casting turns Torchling into a free Jeska's Will copier; the copy resolves first, producing at least 3 red mana from the opponent's hand, which pays for Torchling's untap activation and leaves mana over to repeat. The loop runs as a sorcery-speed engine through any red spellslinger shell — Zada, Hedron Grinder or Veyran, Voice of Duality are natural homes given the magecraft and copy synergies.

Recipe

How it works

01

Prerequisites

Dual Casting attached to Torchling. Torchling does not have summoning sickness. An opponent has at least three cards in hand.

02

Steps

  1. Cast Jeska's Will by paying {2}{R}.
  2. Holding priority, activate Torchling by paying {R} and tapping it, copying Jeska's Will.
  3. Resolve the copy of Jeska's Will, adding at least {R}{R}{R}.
  4. Activate Torchling by paying {R}, untapping it.
  5. Repeat from step 2.

03

Result

Infinite magecraft triggers; Infinite red mana; Exile your library with the ability to play the exiled cards until end of turn

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

The weak point is the prerequisite: if every opponent empties their hand below three, the mana source dries up and the loop stalls. Neheb, the Eternal or other postcombat mana generators offer a more resilient infinite-mana route if Jeska's Will is unavailable. Once the library is exiled, any cast-from-exile payoff closes — Grapeshot on the storm count or Aetherflux Reservoir on the magecraft triggers both win cleanly.
