Toph, the First Metalbender turns Staff of Domination into a Forest, and Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth makes that Forest tap for green mana. Heartbeat of Spring doubles that tap so Staff produces two green, one of which pays the 1 to untap itself and the other floats free — repeat indefinitely. The loop is a green creature-heavy shell's dream since infinite untap of creatures extends to any mana dork on board, and the built-in draw and lifegain mean the combo closes itself out.

Recipe

01

Prerequisites

02

Steps

  1. Activate Staff of Domination by tapping it, adding {G} as it's a Forest land due to Toph and Yavimaya.
  2. Heartbeat of Spring triggers, adding {G}.
  3. Activate Staff of Domination's first ability by paying {1}, untapping it.
  4. Repeat.

03

Result

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

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth is non-negotiable here since Toph alone only makes Staff a Forest without the mana production to loop. If Heartbeat of Spring draws removal, Mana Reflection or Nyxbloom Ancient fill the doubling role. Staff of Domination's draw and lifegain abilities mean no additional win condition is required — the card draws the deck once mana goes infinite.
