Arcbound Reclaimer + Showdown of the Skalds + Welding Jar + The Reality Chip

Arcbound Reclaimer

Showdown of the Skalds

Welding Jar

The Reality Chip

How it works

1. Cast Welding Jar either from your hand or from the top of your library by paying 0
2. Showdown of the Skalds triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on Arcbound Reclaimer.
3. Activate Welding Jar by sacrificing it.
4. Activate Arcbound Reclaimer by removing a +1/+1 counter from it, putting Welding Jar from your graveyard onto the top of your library.
5. Repeat.

This clever loop turns the zero-mana cost of Welding Jar into a perpetual engine by leveraging Showdown of the Skalds to continually replace the counter that fuels Arcbound Reclaimer. As you repeatedly cast the Jar from the top of your library—a line of play enabled by The Reality Chip granting top-deck casting privileges—Showdown of the Skalds’s second and third lore chapters trigger to replenish Arcbound Reclaimer's removed +1/+1 counter. You can then sacrifice the Welding Jar to itself to trigger its effect, immediately use Arcbound Reclaimer to recycle the Jar back onto your library, and repeat the cycle to rack up infinite artifact triggers and storm count.
