How it works

  1. Activate up to seven lands by tapping them, adding at least 2U mana.
  2. Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing Palinchron, adding CC.
  3. Fool's Demise's first and second abilities trigger.
  4. Resolve the first Fool's Demise trigger, returning Palinchron from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  5. When Palinchron enters the battlefield, it triggers, untapping up to seven lands.
  6. Resolve the second Fool's Demise trigger, returning Fool's Demise to your hand from your graveyard.
  7. Cast Fool's Demise by paying 4U mana, targeting Palinchron.
  8. Repeat.
  9. If the seven lands can tap to produce at least 3U mana, this combo nets infinite mana.

This elegant loop turns the self-recurring nature of Fool's Demise into a perpetual motion engine for your mana pool. By enchanting Palinchron with the Aura, you set up a tragic yet profitable cycle where Ashnod's Altar converts the creature into colorless mana while triggering the resurrection effect. Because Palinchron neatly untaps your lands upon arrival, you have more than enough resources left over to recast Fool's Demise from your hand and start the whole process over again.
