Untap all creatures, they gain +1/+1 until end of turn, including Mox Opal, & draw a card. Draw: Ornithopter.
Immediately play Ornithopter to avoid discard.
Time to start infinite loop play.

Infinte Loop:
Tap Etherium Sculptor to return Springleaf Drum to your hand. Play Springleaf Drum.
Untap all creatures, they gain +1/+1 until end of turn, you may draw a card. Tap Alloy Myr & Mox Opal to add 2 Mana of any color to your pool.

Repeat infinitely, continously drawing cards and adding 2 Mana of any color to your pool every cycle. Use this mana to pay as you draw.
As you draw, you will end up playing Steel Overseer & Burning Anger, which you will include into the Cycles.
Now you can continually add a +1/+1 counter to all of your Artifact Creatures while Burning Anger deals damage to target creature or player each cycle equal to equipped creatures power, which is continually increasing with each Cycle due to Jeskai Ascendancy & the +1/+1 counters.
You should be able to play your entire deck out and attack opponent(s) with infintitely powerful creatures.
Unless you decided to burn their life away with Burning Anger during Cycling.

Regardless, obtaining this cycle with this deck composition is virtually an instant win, even in multiplayer scenario and there are multiple ways to to obtain the cycle within this deck.

Deck discussion for Modern Jeskai Loop (Jeskai)

Honestly I just think this is a worse version of the other ascendency decks in modern. It's a good attempt but it relies on very paticular cards to make it work. Not saying this to be mean, I make a lot of modern decks that don't work. Just have to expand your card knowledge past what's in standard right now
