Mind Over Matter discards Eternal Witness to untap Coveted Jewel; Hashaton intercepts that discard, paying 2U to create a tapped 4/4 Zombie copy of Eternal Witness, which returns the real Eternal Witness from the graveyard back to hand. Coveted Jewel funds each loop with UUU, netting one blue mana per cycle after the 2U Hashaton tax. The combo fits naturally in a Hashaton-led reanimator or zombie tribal shell that already wants Mind Over Matter for tap-based engines.

Recipe

How it works

01

Prerequisites

02

Steps

  1. Activate Coveted Jewel by tapping it, adding {U}{U}{U}.
  2. Activate Mind Over Matter by discarding Eternal Witness.
  3. Hashaton triggers, causing you to pay {2}{U} to create a tapped token copy of Eternal Witness that is a 4/4 Zombie.
  4. When the Eternal Witness token enters the battlefield, it triggers, returning Eternal Witness from your graveyard to your hand.
  5. Resolve the Mind Over Matter ability, untapping Coveted Jewel.
  6. Repeat.

03

Result

Infinite ETB; Infinite self-discard triggers; Infinite tapped creature tokens

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

The loop produces infinite tokens and infinite ETB triggers but those tokens enter tapped — Altar of Dementia or Blasting Station converts them into kills immediately. Skullclamp or Zulaport Cutthroat closes faster if the token count is the resource being spent. Replacing Eternal Witness with Timeless Witness gives the same recursion loop with a less tutor-contested piece.
