Urza, Lord High Artificer converts the Clue token Forensic Gadgeteer creates into blue mana; Sol Ring covers the colorless costs to activate Words of Wind and crack the Clue, which recurs Sol Ring and triggers the bounce on each loop. The table watches their lands, rocks, and threats disappear in sequence — not just once, but infinitely, until they have nothing left in play.

Result

Infinite storm count; Return all permanents opponents control to their owner's hand; Infinite colorless mana; Exile your library; Cast all spells in your library; Mass Land Denial

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

The loop demands all four pieces, which makes it vulnerable to any removal that hits Urza or Forensic Gadgeteer before the chain closes — blue has Rhystic Study and Mystical Tutor to assemble it, but a single removal spell at the right moment collapses the whole line. With the library exiled and infinite storm count, Thassa's Oracle or Grapeshot closes the game; without a dedicated kill piece already in the deck, the mass land denial alone won't win unless opponents concede.
