Toph, the First Metalbender + Toph, Hardheaded Teacher + Bartolomé del Presidio + Orzhov Basilica

Toph, the First Metalbender

Toph, Hardheaded Teacher

Bartolomé del Presidio

Orzhov Basilica

How it works

1. Cast the artifact by paying 0.
2. Toph, Hardheaded Teacher triggers, earthbending Orzhov Basilica.
3. Resolve the artifact spell.
4. Activate Bartolomé del Presidio by sacrificing Orzhov Basilica.
5. When Orzhov Basilica dies, Toph, Hardheaded Teach triggers, returning Orzhov Basilica from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped.
6. When Orzhov Basilica enters, it triggers, returning the artifact cast in step 1 from the battlefield to your hand, as it's a land due to Toph, the First Metalbender.
7. Resolve the Bartolomé del Presidio ability
8. Repeat.

This clever loop hinges on Toph, the First Metalbender transforming your cheap artifacts into lands, allowing Orzhov Basilica to bounce them right back to your hand when it enters the battlefield. As you repeatedly cast and sacrifice your artifacts, Toph, Hardheaded Teacher triggers to earthbend your lands into creatures, which Bartolomé del Presidio happily consumes to grow larger while sending Orzhov Basilica to the graveyard. That death trigger immediately pulls Orzhov Basilica right back to the battlefield thanks to its own earthbent resurrection clause, resetting the entire engine for infinite sacrifice and landfall triggers.
