Stenn, Paranoid Partisan reduces the cost of a chosen artifact to 0, letting a zero-cost artifact and Sol Ring alternate as the cast trigger for Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain; each trigger is immediately redirected by Words of Wind to force each player to return a permanent to hand, with the pilot always returning the piece needed to continue the loop. The engine runs on 2 mana to start Words of Wind, then sustains itself on Sol Ring's colorless output. Opponents are stripped of their boards one permanent at a time until nothing remains.

Recipe

How it works

01

Prerequisites

You have an artifact card in hand that can be cast for {0} due to Stenn. You can use an artifact creature to get infinite ETB and LTB triggers. If you do not use a creature, this combo will not produce those results.

02

Steps

  1. Activate Sol Ring by tapping it, adding {C}{C}.
  2. Activate Words of Wind by paying {1}.
  3. Cast an artifact by paying {0}.
  4. Jhoira triggers, causing each player to return a permanent they control from the battlefield to their hand due to Words of Wind, with you returning Sol Ring to your hand.
  5. Activate Words of Wind by paying {1}.
  6. Cast Sol Ring by paying {0}.
  7. Jhoira triggers, causing each player to return a permanent they control from the battlefield to their hand due to Words of Wind, with you returning the artifact cast in step 3 to your hand.
  8. Repeat.

03

Result

Infinite storm count; Return all permanents opponents control to their owner's hand; Infinite LTB; Infinite ETB; Mass Land Denial

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Any zero-mana artifact that Stenn can blank — Ornithopter or Memnite — serves as the bounce piece alongside Sol Ring; the loop does not care which artifact cycles through so long as Stenn zeroes it out. The combo doesn't win outright on its own, so pair it with Aetherflux Reservoir to convert the storm count into lethal damage, or use a Thopter Foundry line to close after the board is cleared.
