There and Back Again's third chapter creates a Smaug token and sacrifices itself; Twinflame copies both Smaug and Eternal Witness, the legend rule kills one Smaug, and its death trigger produces fourteen Treasures. Eternal Witness returns Twinflame, five Treasures pay the 3RR to recast it, and the loop runs as many times as desired. The combo lives in Lore Counter and Saga-based Gruul lists, and any commander that tutors enchantments or instants — Sythis, Harvest's Hand or Horde of Notions — can find a piece.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Strionic Resonator can copy There and Back Again's chapter trigger if the Saga line feels too slow, but it adds a third artifact dependency. The loop itself generates infinite mana and tokens but needs a payoff — Impact Tremors or Purphoros, God of the Forge converts the infinite ETBs into a kill without requiring any of the Treasure float.
