Mind Over Matter discards Eternal Witness to untap Gilded Lotus; Hashaton intercepts the discard to produce a tapped 4/4 Zombie copy of Eternal Witness for

, and that token's ETB returns the original Eternal Witness to hand. Gilded Lotus covers the activation cost each loop, so the engine is self-sustaining as long as Hashaton, Mind Over Matter, and Lotus stay on board — a Sultai-heavy shell with access to white for Hashaton is the natural home.

Prerequisites

Steps

Activate Gilded Lotus by tapping it, adding .
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 Gilded Lotus.
Repeat.

Result

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

Any other recursive creature that costs less than

to reacquire can substitute Eternal Witness — Skullwinder and Timeless Witness both close the loop identically.
