Enthusiastic Mechanaut reduces artifacts to zero mana; Sol Ring and a second zero-cost artifact ping-pong between hand and battlefield through Words of Wind, each cast triggering Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain to replace the drawn card-draw replacement with a forced bounce. Opponents return a permanent every trigger, clearing lands, commanders, and threats simultaneously while the pilot keeps Sol Ring and the artifact looping for free.

How it works

Prerequisites

You have an artifact card in hand that can be cast for due to Enthusiastic Mechanaut. 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.

Steps

Activate Sol Ring by tapping it, adding .
Activate Words of Wind by paying .
Cast an artifact by paying .
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.
Activate Words of Wind by paying .
Cast Sol Ring by paying .
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.
Repeat.

Result

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

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Any second artifact that costs zero after Mechanaut's reduction — Ornithopter, Memnite, Phyrexian Walker — slots in as the bounce target. Swap the artifact creature for a noncreature zero-cost artifact if infinite ETB and LTB triggers aren't needed; the land-denial line works regardless. Aetherflux Reservoir turns the infinite storm count into an immediate kill, cutting the dependence on grinding opponents out through bounce.
