How it works

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

This clever loop transforms a zero-mana artifact into an infinite engine by leveraging Toph, the First Metalbender, which turns your nontoken artifacts into lands. With that foundation set, casting your free artifact triggers Toph, Hardheaded Teacher to animate Selesnya Sanctuary into a creature via earthbend 1, allowing you to feed it to Bloodflow Connoisseur's sacrifice ability. Because Selesnya Sanctuary is a land, its death triggers Toph, Hardheaded Teacher's safety net to bring it straight back to the battlefield tapped; upon entry, Selesnya Sanctuary's own bounce ability targets your original zero-mana artifact, returning it to your hand so the whole cycle can begin anew.
