Toph, the First Metalbender + Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth + Staff of Domination + Dictate of Karametra
4-card combo · RGW
Verdict
Yes — this 4-piece loop generates infinite black mana and draws the whole library once all parts are on the battlefield.

Toph, the First Metalbender and Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth turn Staff of Domination into a Swamp, letting it tap for black mana; Dictate of Karametra doubles that into two, which is enough to pay the 1 for Staff's untap ability and repeat indefinitely. Every loop cycles Staff of Domination's draw and lifegain triggers as many times as wanted, so the table sees an empty library and an arbitrarily high life total. This sits in a Naya shell, so tutors like Enlightened Tutor or Fauna Shaman find the pieces.

Variations
Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines
Bubbling Muck replaces Dictate of Karametra as a one-shot mana doubler if enchantment removal is prevalent, though it ends the loop after one activation and requires a different approach to sustain it. Selvala, Heart of the Wilds can substitute as an alternate mana engine in creature-heavy builds, but the Toph and Urborg dependency is non-negotiable — without both on the field, Staff of Domination produces no mana at all. Walking Ballista or Aetherflux Reservoir converts the infinite mana into the kill.
