Ok so I was looking at spoilers and saw this beauty. Emmara, Soul of the Accord. Then after doing some looking around I put together this combo. Does this work? Infinite tokens and life? Emmara, Soul of the Accord Kiora's Follower Cryptolith Rite Aura of Dominion? Because you have the Aura attached to the Follower and do this. Tap Emmara for 1 mana and get a token. Then tap the Follower to untap Emmara then tap Emmara for another mana and another token and use one of the 2 mana floating to tap a token and untap the follower which then lets you untap Emmara. SOOOO if I am right you are now left with infinite tokens and mana? If lost in the process or if I am just plane wrong please let me know.

Going through it I forgot you wanted infinite mana with this... So including Kiora's follower you get the following:
Tap Emmara, Soul of the Accord for
Gain a token
tap Kiora's Follower to untap emmara
tap emmara for
gain token
pay and tap token to untap follower
tap follower to untap emmara
tap emmara for
pay and tap token to untap follower
continue...
So no infinite mana. Adding follower just gives you 1 extra token and mana before you go infinite.

Sorry for the spam...
Use Intruder Alarm instead of the aura and the follower. With alarm, Cryptolith Rite, and Emmara, Soul of the Accord all creatures will untap every time emmara taps.

It's fine! The way you showed the order of steps was great! And Intruder Alarm looks awesome! One of my friends said put the Aura on Emmara and replace the Follower with Ashnod's Altar and then go infinite mana and play Walking Ballista.

Your friend's idea is a good one. It is just too bad this all needs , if you could drop the part then Emmara could actually be the commander.

HA! So you didn't ask for this but if you wanted Emmara, Soul of the Accord could be your commander with the following combo.
Illusionist's Bracers on Seeker of Skybreak, Cryptolith Rite and Emmara, Soul of the Accord in play.
tap emmara for
gain token
tap skybreak to untap target creature
bracers untap a second target creature
skybreak and emmara untap
repeat. This results in infinite tokens and infinite mana.
The Rite can be replaced with any tap effect like Viridian Longbow.

You just need Intruder Alarm and a way to tap her.

Paradise Mantle would be helpful potentially too.
Thornbite Staff on Emmara and a sac outlet of your choice would do, if you wanted to get really elaborate...
No infinite tokens this way though, just mana.

You don't need Kiora's follower. It works fine.
Tap Emmara, Soul of the Accord for
Gain a token
pay and tap token to untap emmara
tap emmara for
gain token
pay and tap token to untap emmara
continue until desired result obtained.
