By animating all noncreature artifacts into artifact creatures with March of the Machines, we cleverly bring Basalt Monolith within range of Heartstone's cost-reduction static ability. This means the {3} required to untap Basalt Monolith drops to {2}, creating a loop where tapping the artifact yields three colorless mana while the untap ability costs only two. Cycling through this process generates infinite colorless mana, turning an ordinary mana rock into a self-sustaining engine.
