Zirda, the Dawnwaker reduces activated abilities by 2, which is what makes the whole chain affordable — Sunforger's equip drops to 1, and Reito Sentinel's library-shuffle costs 2 instead of 4, letting Treasure tokens from Big Score fund the reset. Jeska's Will dumps the red mana needed to keep reattaching and recasting, while Big Score refuels the hand and creates the next loop's gas. The table sees a Sunforger shell doing Sunforger things right up until the turn it goes infinite.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

The prerequisite is the real constraint: an opponent needs six or more cards in hand, so either run Wheel of Fortune effects to bloat hand sizes or accept that the loop is situational. If Reito Sentinel is removed, there is no functional replacement for the library-shuffle role — protect it. Aetherflux Reservoir or Monastery Mentor are the natural closers once storm count climbs; the loop generates the engine, the kill requires a separate piece already on board.
