Infinite Self-Mill/Draw (170)

Infinite Mill/Forcefeed (44)

1-Card Combos (42)

Infinite Mana (165)

Infinite Combat Phases (62)

Infinite Hasty Tokens (42)

Infinite Turns (145)

Infinite Noncombat Damage/Lifeloss (94)

Immediate Losses (20)

List of all 2-card infinite combos.

What this includes:

Combos that result in infinite mana, infinite self-mill (to win with Nexus of Fate or a Laboratory Maniac effect), infinite mill/forcefeed, infinite noncombat damage/lifeloss, infinite hasty tokens, infinite turns, or infinite combat phases.
Combos that are comprised of only 2 cards, whether they be on the battlefield, in the hand, in the graveyard, or even in exile. Required cards in a library do not count to that 2-card limitation.
1-Card Combos, which typically work by being cards that tutor multiple pieces to these combos.

What this doesn't include:

Combos that result in something other than the above results. This includes infinite nonhasty tokens, infinite lifegain, and infinite powered creature.

In addition, I have sorted the following list by combos by primary redundancy values from largest to smallest, which I have defined as the number of cards that fill the same role in the half of the combo that has the fewest number of cards that can fill that role and have put first in the combo, then secondary reduncancy values, which I have defined as the number of cards that fill the role of the other half of the combo, then by the smallest color identity (for Commander), which I've also put right before the combo. Lastly, if the values of the two redundancy values are the same, I label the first half of the combo as the one that is involved in more combos if possible, then alphabetically:

Infinite Turns

( or or or ) Infinite Self-Mill/Draw

This category is a little different than the rest. You can use this category to win with a Laboratory Maniac effect, Nexus of Fate, or some other convoluted strategy, since you now have as many cards for the combo as you want without needing more than two in hand in order to win with it. In that way, these combos could go in the other categories also, but they are only found here to keep the list cleaner.

Infinite Mill/Forcefeed

(Fleet Swallower/Traumatize)+(Bruvac the Grandiloquent/Fraying Sanity/Keening Stone)
(Mind Over Matter(1)/Tolarian Kraken(2))+(Selvala, Explorer Returned(1,2)/Arcanis the Omnipotent(1)/Archivist(1)/Azami, Lady of Scrolls(1)/Enclave Cryptologist(1)/Lu Su, Wu Advisor(1)/Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind(1)/Oracle's Insight(1)/Otherworld Atlas(1)/Quicksilver Dagger(1)/Sea Gate Loremaster(1)/Survivor of the Unseen(1)/Talas Researcher(1)/Temple Bell(1)/Urza's Blueprints(1)) (The cards that let only you draw cards work even when you have no cards in hand by drawing and discarding cards until you find Gush in order to refill your hand by casting it for free. With four cards in your hand, you can untap three lands and continue drawing and discarding until you draw Temple Bell, which lets you cast it and target it with Mind Over Matter to mill your opponents out infinitely. At any point during this combo and regardless of what combo piece is used, it is necessary to have an Eldrazi shuffler so that it is truly infinite.)
( or ) (Compost(1)/Enter the Infinite(1)/Peer into the Abyss(2))+(Psychic Corrosion(1,2)/Sphinx's Tutelage(1,2)/Teferi's Tutelage(1,2)/Folio of Fancies(1))
( or ) Helm of Obedience+(Leyline of the Void/Rest in Peace)
Mindcrank+(Bloodchief Ascension/Duskmantle Guildmage/Syr Konrad, the Grim)
Eater of the Dead+Phenax, God of Deception
Fleet Swallower+Psychic Spiral
Grindstone+Painter's Servant
Gyruda, Doom of Depths+Infinite Reflection
Selvala, Explorer Returned+Tolarian Kraken

( or or ) Infinite Noncombat Damage/Lifeloss

( or ) Infinite Hasty Tokens (Can Attack Immediately)

(Elemental Mastery(1)/Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker(2)/Splinter Twin(3))+(Breath of Fury(1,2,3)/Intruder Alarm(1,2,3)/Village Bell-Ringer(1,2,3)/Battered Golem(1,3)/Midnight Guard(1,3)/Sunstrike Legionnaire(1,3)/Bounding Krasis(2,3)/Breaching Hippocamp(2,3)/Combat Celebrant(2,3)/Deceiver Exarch(2,3)/Great Oak Guardian(2,3)/Pestermite(2,3)/Sky Hussar(2,3)/Sparring Mummy(2,3)/Zealous Conscripts(2,3)/Altar Golem(1)/Grimgrin, Corpse-Born(1)/Felidar Guardian(2)/Restoration Angel(2)/Wispweaver Angel(1)/Benthicore(3)/Captain of the Mists(3))
(Dualcaster Mage/Naru Meha, Master Wizard)+(Heat Shimmer/Kindred Charge/Twinflame)
The Locust God+(Beck/Dire Undercurrents/Enter the Infinite/Kindred Discovery/Peer into the Abyss/Sage of the Falls) (Some of these work only if you can stop the forced drawing with something like Snapback in the deck.)
(Felidar Guardian(1)/Wispweaver Angel(2))+(Molten Echoes(1,2)/Flameshadow Conjuring(1)/Saheeli Rai(1)) (Conjuring works by making a token that flickers the original while the original flickers a mountain. The important part is to put the Felidar ability on top of the Conjuring ability on the stack.)
Palinchron+(Flameshadow Conjuring/Minion Reflector)

Infinite Combat Phases (Except Infinite Turns)

Infinite Mana

( or ) Other Immediate Losses for Opponents

This is another weird category, as it makes no sense to include cards like Door to Nothingness (which can all be found at MagicalHacker - List of All Alt. Win Conditions), but interactions like Phage the Untouchable + Fractured Identity or Demonic Consultation + Thassa's Oracle deserve to be on a list like this!

1-Card Combos

These cards are able to tutor multiple cards over their existence, meaning that they can single-handedly build these infinite combos, and they are only sorted alphabetically. Take a look at all the cards in your colors to see if they apply to your deck, as just a single example is given in the parentheses (so if you are looking for a 1-card combo to result in infinite mill, don't skip over these cards just because my example isn't for infinite mill):

Please let me know of any other 2-card infinite combos that fit these requirements, and we can make this list even better :D
