Elsha of the Infinite + Memory Lapse + Storm-Kiln Artist + Chandra, Hope's Beacon + Displacer Kitten

Elsha of the Infinite

Memory Lapse

Storm-Kiln Artist

Chandra, Hope's Beacon

Displacer Kitten

How it works

1. Cast any spell, or wait for an opponent to cast one.
2. Holding priority, cast Memory Lapse either from your hand or from the top of your library by paying 1, targeting that spell.
3. Chandra, Displacer Kitten, Elsha of the Infinite's prowess ability and Storm-Kiln Artist trigger.
4. Resolve the Storm-Kiln Artist trigger, creating a Treasure artifact token.
5. Resolve the Elsha of the Infinite trigger, giving it +1/+1 until end of turn.
6. Resolve the Displacer Kitten trigger, blinking Chandra.
7. Resolve the Chandra trigger, copying Memory Lapse, targeting the original Memory Lapse.
8. Storm-Kiln Artist triggers, creating a Treasure artifact token.
9. Resolve the copy of Memory Lapse, countering the original Memory Lapse and putting it on top of your library.
10. Activate the Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding 1.
11. Repeat from step 2.

This ingenious loop turns a simple counterspell into an endless engine of arcane momentum. With Elsha of the Infinite allowing you to peer into the future and cast noncreature spells right off the top of your library, Memory Lapse becomes your recursive weapon; whenever you cast it, Chandra, Hope's Beacon steps in to copy it so that one copy targets and recycles the original back to your library. Meanwhile, Storm-Kiln Artist acts as your financial backer, generating a steady stream of Treasure tokens every time you cast or copy an instant or sorcery to fund the mana requirements. To keep the machine safe and fresh, Displacer Kitten blinks Chandra in and out of existence with every cast, while Elsha of the Infinite's prowess ability grows larger and larger with each iteration to leave you with a towering threat.
