Panoptic Mirror imprints Ghostly Flicker and fires at each upkeep; Strionic Resonator copies that trigger for 2 colorless, Temple of the False God pays for it, and Ghostly Flicker blinks both Resonator and Temple back untapped to repeat the cycle. The loop runs in mono-blue and asks for five lands — Temple of the False God is load-bearing, not a flex slot. Any deck running Niv-Mizzet, Parun or Sphinx-Bone Wand turns infinite magecraft into a table kill.

How it works

Prerequisites

You control at least five lands.

Steps

At the beginning of your upkeep, Panoptic Mirror triggers.
Holding priority, activate Temple of the False God by tapping it, adding .
Activate Strionic Resonator by paying and tapping it, copying Panoptic Mirror's trigger.
Resolve the copy of Panoptic Mirror's trigger, casting a copy of Ghostly Flicker without paying its mana cost.
Resolve the copy of Ghostly Flicker, blinking Temple of the False God and Strionic Resonator.
Repeat from step 2.

Result

Infinite storm count; Infinite magecraft triggers; Infinite landfall triggers

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

The combo produces no mana beyond what Temple provides, so it needs a magecraft or storm payoff already on the battlefield — Aetherflux Reservoir and Bonus Round don't help here, but Niv-Mizzet, Parun draws the library and pings repeatedly. Four pieces is a steep assembly cost; Drift of Phantasms transmutes for Strionic Resonator and Muddle the Mixture hits Ghostly Flicker, but Panoptic Mirror has no clean tutor line in blue.
