Prime Speaker Vannifar sacrifices Llanowar Elves to fetch Timestream Navigator back to the battlefield each cycle; Muldrotha, the Gravetide then recasts Llanowar Elves from the graveyard for one green, funding the next activation. The city's blessing requirement is the real setup cost — Sultai creature-heavy lists accumulate permanents fast, but this combo sits dead until that threshold is crossed.

Infinite turns; Lock

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Quirion Ranger or Wirewood Symbiote can substitute for Llanowar Elves as the sacrificial one-drop if the green mana source needs to be swapped for something that also serves as hate. Biogenic Upgrade or any permanent draw engine on the battlefield closes the game once infinite turns are established — the loop wins nothing by itself without a win condition resolving in the extra turns.
