Zirda, the Dawnwaker + Sunforger + Unexpected Windfall + Jeska's Will + Reito Sentinel

5-card combo · RW

Verdict

Yes — this 5-piece loop generates near-infinite red mana and card draw in Boros, which almost never gets either.

Zirda, the Dawnwaker cuts the equip cost on Sunforger to 1, making it cheap enough to reattach every loop iteration; Reito Sentinel puts Jeska's Will and Unexpected Windfall back into the library so Sunforger can fetch them again. The prerequisite — an opponent holding six or more cards — is trivially met by turn four in most pods, so the setup is the real bottleneck, not the trigger condition.

Recipe

How it works

Prerequisites

An opponent has six or more cards in hand.

Steps

Activate Sunforger by paying and unattaching it, searching your library for Jeska's Will and casting it without paying its mana cost, adding at least six .
Activate Sunforger's equip ability by paying , attaching it to Zirda.
Activate Sunforger by paying and unattaching it, searching your library for Unexpected Windfall and casting it without paying its mana cost and discarding a card.
Resolve Unexpected Windfall, causing you to draw two cards and create two Treasures.
Activate Sunforger's equip ability by paying , attaching it to Zirda.
Activate Reito Sentinel twice by paying , putting Unexpected Windfall and Jeska's Will from your graveyard onto the bottom of your library.
Activate two Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding .
Repeat.

Result

Infinite draw triggers; Near-infinite storm count; Near-infinite self-discard triggers; Near-infinite magecraft triggers; Near-infinite card draw; Near-infinite red mana

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

The five-piece assembly is the fragile point: Sunforger dies to artifact removal at any step and the loop collapses entirely, so redundant tutors like Enlightened Tutor or Steelshaper's Gift are mandatory inclusions. Zirda must be on the battlefield as a companion or commander rather than in the 99 for consistent access; running her as commander is the correct call. The loop doesn't close on its own — channel the near-infinite red mana into Grapeshot, Crackle with Power, or a large Finale of Promise to actually win.
