Deck Challenge: Infinite Mana in Standard

Hi everybody.

Your deck challenge is to create a Standard-legal deck [new Standard, with Scars of Mirrodin] which is capable of generating an arbitrary amount of mana.

If you discover multiple ways to generate "infinite" mana, include as many different ways as possible, all in the same deck.

60 cards, usual deck-building rules apply [e.g. no more than four of a card].

Your deck is not required to be competitive -- seek goofy combos that technically work, but would be unrealistic in practice! -- and you don't even need to include a way to use the mana.

When you post your deck, please describe the various ways your deck is capable of generating "infinite" mana (explain each combo).

Coolest deck wins this smile: :)

Infinate colorless mana:

2x Training Grounds
1x Spawnspire

Use both training grounds to make Spawnspires 4 mana ability only 1 mana. Create two spawn tokens, sac 1 to gain 1 mana, to produce 2 more tokens. This will grant you infinate Spawn Tokens and colorless mana.

-----

Allies infinate all colors mana:

1x Harabaz Druid
1x Crab Umbra
3x Any other allies (Only 1 if you have training grounds out)

Equip crab umbra on Druid. Tap for 4 blue mana, use 3 mana to untap using Crab Umbra, repeat until infinate Blue mana is in your pool. Now that you can untap for free with your infinate blue mana, repeat for any other color needed.

-----

I'm too lazy to make a deck but if I was going to it would be red blue green allies with training grounds, mass polymorph, and Spawnspires, Birds of Paradise splinter twins and probably main deck 1 or two fireballs for a funny way to win. But use your imagination, and feel free to tweak my ideas. Thanks.

This deck has a querky combo but it is also good for infinite mana. First just start with 4 each of copper, iron, gold, palladium, silver myrs with 4 voltaic keys to untap the myrs. secondly, put in 4 of myrsmith and myr galavanizers. finally, for the gamebreaker have four myr battlespheres so u can ifinite mana to use voltaic keys and the galvanizers to win.

This is a pretty fun combo because you can get it out pretty quickly and no one sees it coming. I ran an older build at FNM and did alright with it. This version seems more consistent when I've tested it. It's kind of tough to learn how to play well.

Well, I won't submit a deck about it. But, there's also the SoM block method of achieving unlimited mana.

2x Myr Galvanizers (pay 1, tap: untap all other myrs)
2x Any Colored Mana Myr (OR) 1x Palladium Myr (taps for two colorless)

Easy cycle infinite mana.
