Toph, the First Metalbender and Yavimaya, Cradle of Growth together make Staff of Domination a Forest, letting it tap for one green mana; Nyxbloom Ancient then triples that output to three green, which more than covers the one-mana untap cost. The loop runs through Staff of Domination's tap-for-life and draw-a-card activations as many times as needed, turning any turn it goes online into a full library dig and an arbitrarily large life total.

Recipe

How it works

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, and adding another {G}{G} due to Nyxbloom Ancient
  2. Activate Staff of Domination's first ability by paying {1}, untapping it.
  3. 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

Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider or Mana Reflection can replace Nyxbloom Ancient as the mana-doubling piece, though both raise the redundancy cost in deck slots. The combo wins the game cleanly through the draw engine — once the library is empty, Oracle of Mul Daya or Thassa's Oracle in the 99 closes it out.
