I came across these two cards in my collection, and thought "what if..."

"Came across"? Just casually happened to find a $1K+ card (assuming tournament legal) in your collection? Also, yes, assuming you get an upkeep with Time Walk imprinted, you effectively have infinite turns.

Yep, you can do that.

But since Time Walk is only legal (restricted at that) in vintage, you can only play that combo in vintage

Link all your cards: Time Walk Panoptic Mirror

Short answer: Yes. That works fine.

In case you don't know, Panoptic Mirror is banned in Commander/EDH.

the funny thing is that you can also do Isochron Scepter with Time Walk

Ignore yahelhotam, as that is in no way a combo. Panoptic Mirror works because it allows you to exile an instant or sorcery, whereas Isochron Scepter only allows you to exile instants. As for the best way to make the combo your trying to play work, the trick to it is that you can play the mirror and not exile anything, then on your next upkeep you can respond to the trigger by activating the ability now that your lands are untapped, thus exiling the Time Walk as a surprise. If you have the mana open, you can also do it on your opponent's end step so that you have that extra two mana on your first of infinate turns.

sorry, i didn't realize that Isochron Scepter only exiles instants, and yes, the mirror combo works better also because you don't need to pay the extra 2 every turn.

The Final Fortune + Isochron Scepter combo is pretty spectacular though, just make sure you throw in Sundial of the Infinite

i'm going to guess (tell me if i'm wrong) that if you end the turn at the moment that final fortune is on the stack, you won't lose the game or something. because if not, you will lose so i'm confused.
