Helix Pinnacle deck with a few options for infinite mana. All combos use 2 or 3 cards at most.

Example win:
T1 Land, Sol Ring, Mox Diamond, Grim Monolith, Helix Pinnacle
T2 Power Artifact on the Monolith, pass the turn, make infinite mana at the next end step so you win at your T3 upkeep.

You can also win through Laboratory Maniac + Doomsday or Demonic Consultation + draw spells.

Example win:
T1 Island, Mana Crypt, Laboratory Maniac
T2 Swamp, Demonic Consultation naming Lab Maniac, Brainstorm, and you win.

Infinite mana combos

- Ensoul Artifact + Voltaic Construct + Grim Monolith or Basalt Monolith
- Palinchron or Peregrine Drake + Deadeye Navigator
- Palinchron + Phantasmal Image
- Astral Cornucopia with more than 3 charge counters + Filigree Sages
- Power Artifact + Filigree Sages + Gilded Lotus
- Animate Artifact + Voltaic Construct + Grim Monolith or Basalt Monolith

Other combos

1. When you have infinite mana, Filigree Sages + Magistrate's Scepter = infinite turns
2. When you have infinite mana, play Thrasios, Triton Hero and Doomsday (choose Approach of the Second Sun as a card). Then draw 5 with Thrasios, play Approach of the Second Sun, draw again, then recast Approach for the win.

Choice of commander doesn't really matter as long as it includes BUG for its color identity. Atraxa, Praetors' Voice or Tasigur, the Golden Fang are options, as well as Thrasios, Triton Hero + Tymna the Weaver. Personally I use Triton/Tymna here because the infinite mana combos work best with Triton. Access to white isn't relevant although I've included a couple of cards since I'm able to.
