How it works
Activate Nardole by tapping it, adding at least that can only be spent to cast noncreature spells.
Cast Whim of Volrath with buyback by paying 2.
Chakram Retriever triggers, untapping Nardole.
Resolve Whim of Volrath, returning it to your hand.
Repeat.
If Nardole has at least four counters on it, this combo nets infinite that can only be spent to cast noncreature spells, and you may target any other creature using Chakram Retriever's trigger.
This ingenious loop turns a simple color-shifting spell into a massive engine by exploiting the static synergy between your permanents. Nardole, Resourceful Cyborg provides the foundational mana, tapping to generate blue mana scaled to the counters it holds, which conveniently covers the exact cost needed to keep the cycle going. As you cast Whim of Volrath from your hand, Chakram Retriever's triggered ability steps in to untap Nardole every single time a spell is cast during your turn. Thanks to Whim of Volrath's clever buyback cost, the spell returns directly to your hand instead of the graveyard, allowing you to seamlessly repeat the entire process for infinite mana, storm, and untaps.
