Mind Over Matter discards Eternal Witness to untap Nyx Lotus; Hashaton intercepts that discard, paying 2U to create a tapped 4/4 Zombie copy that ETBs and returns Eternal Witness from the graveyard to hand, resetting the loop. The engine lives in a high-devotion shell — Nyx Lotus needs at least four blue pips on the battlefield to break even on the 2U Hashaton cost, so dense blue permanent counts are mandatory.

How it works

Prerequisites

—

Steps

Activate Nyx Lotus by tapping it, adding at least .
Activate Mind Over Matter by discarding Eternal Witness.
Hashaton triggers, causing you to pay to create a tapped token copy of Eternal Witness that is a 4/4 Zombie.
When the Eternal Witness token enters the battlefield, it triggers, returning Eternal Witness from your graveyard to your hand.
Resolve the Mind Over Matter ability, untapping Nyx Lotus.
Repeat.

Result

Infinite ETB; Infinite self-discard triggers; Infinite tapped creature tokens; Infinite mana among colors with which you have devotion

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Any creature with an ETB that returns a card from the graveyard to hand can replace Eternal Witness — Skullwinder or Timeless Witness both slot in, with Timeless Witness being strictly better since the token copy also eternally recurs. The infinite tokens and mana need a closer; Altar of Dementia mills the table with infinite sacrifices, and Walking Ballista converts the colorless or colored mana surplus into a kill.
