Toph, the First Metalbender turns Staff of Domination into a land, and Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth makes every land a Swamp — so tapping the Staff produces black mana, which Mana Flare immediately doubles, leaving one floating after paying the untap cost. The loop runs indefinitely, stacking infinite lifegain off the tap trigger and infinite card draw from the draw ability once mana is no longer a constraint. This sits in Naya color identity, so the black mana itself is a curiosity — the payoff is the Staff's draw and creature-untap lines.

01

Prerequisites

02

Steps

  4. Repeat.

03

Result

Infinite lifegain triggers; Infinite lifegain; Infinite card draw; Infinite untap of creatures you control; Infinite draw triggers; Infinite mana creatures you control can produce; Infinite black mana

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Nyxbloom Ancient can replace Mana Flare if tripling is preferable to doubling, and any artifact tutor — Enlightened Tutor, Stoneforge Mystic — finds Staff of Domination to assemble the loop faster. Once infinite draw resolves, Thassa's Oracle or an instant-speed kill through Walking Ballista recycled by a green creature loop closes the game; the engine generates the mana, something else converts it.
