Messing around with the Paradox Engine - Servant of the Conduit - Greenbelt Rampager infinite combo. Updated with Rivals.

Weirdly this deck is kinda working. It's not great, but it's getting semi-consistent with Uncage the Menagerie being able to conveniently find most of the combo. It doesn't find a Paradox Engine directly, but it can find a Glint-Nest Crane to help find it. Or if you have the combo online, it can find a Merchant's Dockhand or River Hoopoe to dig through the deck to find the Aetherflux Reservoir to finish. With a decent draw, you get there on turn 6. (With a bad draw, it's more like turn 10 or later.)

The most awkward part of the combo is keeping your energy count low so that Greenbelt Rampager always returns to hand. That's why Rogue Refiner isn't in the deck. But it's not the worst if you put a Rampager in play early, since you can use Release to the Wind or Depths of Desire to restart the combo later.

You can also be a little aggro if you want to put Rampager into play turn 2. And having the Rampager crew a Cultivator's Caravan to attack for 5 ain't nothin'. Getting a few +1/+1 counters on some 1/3 fliers can be tough to deal with efficiently.

If you can't keep a Servant in play, Vizier of Tumbling Sands plus Aether Hub will do.

I've tried some random cards out. Torrential Gearhulk seems great in theory but it kept getting stranded in hand and killing the consistency of the deck. Path of Discovery works decently as an additional card filter and creature booster, and has synergy with Rishkar, Peema Renegade. Timestream Navigator also works decently in this deck as you get to 10 permanents frequently and the extra turn is a threat to enable the infinite combo finish. Oviya Pashiri, Sage Lifecrafter doesn't exactly have synergy with the core of the deck but she does like a deck with infinite mana and infinite untaps.
