How it works

  1. Activate Nardole by tapping it, adding at least U manaU manaU manaU mana that can only be spent to cast noncreature spells.
  2. Cast Mind Games with buyback by paying 2U manaU mana.
  3. Chakram Retriever triggers, untapping Nardole.
  4. Resolve Mind Games, tapping target artifact, creature or land and returning Mind Games to your hand.
  5. Repeat.
  6. If Nardole has at least five counters on it, this combo nets infinite U mana that can only be spent to cast noncreature spells, and you may target any other creature using Chakram Retriever's trigger.

This clever loop transforms Nardole, Resourceful Cyborg into a dedicated mana engine, relying on its passive undying ability and counter-scaling mana generation to fuel the combination. By casting Mind Games with its buyback cost, you trigger Chakram Retriever's static ability to constantly untap Nardole so it can repeatedly pay for the spell. As long as Nardole holds enough counters to cover the buyback expense, this recursive spell-casting generates an infinite storm count and endless untaps for your board.
