Turnabout untaps all lands, refunding more than it costs when the land base is large enough; Ghostly Flicker blinks Eternal Witness and Zealous Lorecaster, which return both spells to hand and reset the loop. The combo sits in Temur spellslinger and landfall shells — commanders like Riku of Two Reflections or Aesi, Tyrant of Gyre Strait who already want these pieces for value.

Recipe

How it works

Prerequisites

Lands you control can tap to produce at least . If lands you control can tap to produce at least , this combo nets infinite mana. You can then stop casting Turnabout and blink one other permanent using Ghostly Flicker. You may also tap artifacts and/or creatures instead for mana if desired.

Steps

Activate any number of lands you control by tapping them, adding at least .
Cast Turnabout by paying , untapping all lands you control.
Cast Ghostly Flicker by paying , blinking Eternal Witness and Zealous Lorecaster.
When Eternal Witness and Zealous Lorecaster enter the battlefield, they trigger, returning Turnabout and Ghostly Flicker from your graveyard to your hand.
Repeat.

Result

Infinite ETB; Infinite LTB; Infinite blinking; Infinite landfall triggers; Infinite magecraft triggers; Infinite mana permanents you control can produce; Infinite storm count

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Archaeomancer or Mnemonic Wall can replace Eternal Witness if green is light in the build, though both are slower ETBs. Peregrine Drake or Palinchron can replace Turnabout as the untap engine with a higher ceiling on mana production. The loop itself doesn't kill — pair it with a storm payoff like Thermo-Alchemist, a landfall trigger like Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle, or a magecraft payoff like Archmage Emeritus to empty the library.
