Toph, the First Metalbender + Toph, Hardheaded Teacher + Woe Strider + Guildless Commons

Toph, the First Metalbender

Toph, Hardheaded Teacher

Woe Strider

Guildless Commons

How it works

1. Cast the artifact by paying 0.
2. Toph, Hardheaded Teacher triggers, earthbending Guildless Commons.
3. Resolve the artifact spell.
4. Activate Woe Strider by sacrificing Guildless Commons.
5. When Guildless Commons dies, Toph, Hardheaded Teach triggers, returning Guildless Commons from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped.
6. When Guildless Commons 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 Woe Strider ability
8. Repeat.

This intricate loop transforms a free artifact into an infinite engine by creatively leveraging Toph, the First Metalbender, which turns all your nontoken artifacts into lands. With Guildless Commons on the board, Toph, Hardheaded Teacher triggers upon casting your spell to turn the Commons into a creature via earthbend, setting it up as a disposable sacrifice. You then feed that land-creature to Woe Strider's sacrifice ability, triggering Toph, Hardheaded Teacher's safety clause to return the Commons to the battlefield tapped. Because Toph, the First Metalbender makes your artifacts into lands, Guildless Commons's own entry trigger bounces your original artifact back to your hand, ready to be recast and repeat the cycle indefinitely for infinite sacrifices, scry triggers, and landfall.
