Puresteel Paladin's metalcraft ability, active with three or more artifacts, makes Skullclamp equip for zero mana; slapping it onto Crookshank Kobolds kills the Kobold on the spot, Enduring Renewal returns it to hand, and Skullclamp draws two. Crookshank Kobolds casts for zero, so the loop costs nothing to sustain and empties the library in a single turn.

Recipe

How it works

Prerequisites

You control at least three artifacts.

Steps

Activate Skullclamp's equip ability by paying , attaching it to Crookshank Kobolds.
Crookshank Kobolds dies as a state-based action due to having zero toughness, triggering Enduring Renewal and Skullclamp.
Resolve the Enduring Renewal trigger, returning Crookshank Kobolds from your graveyard to your hand.
Resolve the Skullclamp trigger, causing you to draw two cards.
Cast Crookshank Kobolds by paying .
Repeat.

Result

Infinite card draw; Infinite draw triggers; Near-infinite death triggers; Near-infinite ETB; Near-infinite LTB; Near-infinite sacrifice triggers; Near-infinite storm count

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Shield Sphere and Ornithopter are the cleanest Kobold substitutes — any zero-mana creature with one or less toughness that won't suicide before equip resolves works here. White storm lists pair this loop with Aetherflux Reservoir as the kill; otherwise the draw engine needs a payoff like Thassa's Oracle or Brain Freeze already in hand when the loop starts.
