Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

Commander / EDH Mono-White

This is a combo deck in white that mainly screws around and constantly recycles small artifact creatures until it stumbles upon one of the many infinite combinations using Teshar and a "return target artifact/creature from graveyard" creature. While the infinites are the win condition, in order to keep it at a fun level I have excluded many of the artifact tutors to let it come naturally and just have fun recycling artifact creatures.

Examples of the two most basic infinites using are Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle + Ashnod's Altar + Myr Retriever + Memnite and Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle + Blasting Station + Myr Retriever + Memnite. They work as follows:

  1. Have all pieces on the field or some way to get all pieces on the field. If you are using Blasting Station with two creatures, you want to have the Memnite in the graveyard while it is untapped.

  2. Sacrifice Myr Retriever with your sacrifice outlet and return the Memnite to your hand.

  3. Cast the Memnite and use Teshar's ability to bring Myr Retriever back to the battlefield. If you are using Blasting Station, you have to sacrifice the Memnite in response to the triggered ability causing it to untap form the Memnite entering. This allows it to untap after you've already sent Memnite to the Graveyard.

  4. Repeat from step 2.

Myr retriever can be substituted for any "Return artifact from graveyard" creature and Grafted Wargear can be used for the sacrifice outlet, although it doesn't produce any technical value without other cards influencing the combo. The Memnite can also be substituted for any historic permanent that you can sacrifice as long as you either profit on enough mana from Ashnod's Altar or have enough cost reducers to make them effectively zero cost. At that point, the additional effect from the combo comes from the creature's ETB or LTB. For example, if you are using Filigree Familiar instead of Memnite, you produce infinite life and infinite card draw.

Right now the only win condition outlet for the infinite I am missing is an Altar of Dementia.
