Initial Card State

  1.  Irenicus's Vile Duplication and Ember Island Production in hand.
  2.  Krark and Earthcraft on the battlefield.

Notable Prerequisites

  1. This combo has a chance of failure based on the amount of starting mana you have and your first few coin flips.
  2. It may take significantly more or less mana than the amount shown.
  3. See the widget below for calculations.

Mana Needed

  1. six generic manaone blue manaone blue manaone blue mana available.

Steps

  1. Activate Earthcraft by tapping an untapped creature you control, untapping a basic land.
  2. Activate that basic land by tapping it, adding one mana.
  3. Repeat until there are no more available creatures to tap.
  4. Cast Irenicus's Vile Duplication by paying its mana cost, targeting Krark.
  5. When you cast Irenicus's Vile Duplication, Krark and any additional copies of Krark trigger.
  6. Resolve all Krark triggers, copying Irenicus's Vile Duplication for each flip you won, and returning the original to your hand as long as you lost at least one flip.
  7. Resolve each copy of Irenicus's Vile Duplication, creating a nonlegendary token copy of Krark each time.
  8. If Irenicus's Vile Duplication is back in your hand, repeat from step 1.
  9. If you won every flip, instead resolve the Irenicus's Vile Duplication card itself, creating one more Krark token and putting the card into your graveyard.
  10. Repeat steps 1 through 9 with Ember Island Production, if you still need more Krark copies.
  11. If you manage to pass a critical threshold of Krark copies before both Irenicus's Vile Duplication and Ember Island Production end up in your graveyard, this combo is overwhelmingly likely to be an infinite loop from that point on. See the widget below for failure chances.
  12. Once you have infinite mana and infinite copies of Krark, you can repeat this loop with any instant or sorcery you can cast.

Results

  1. Infinite colored mana.
  2. Infinite copies of creatures you control.
  3. Infinite copies of instant or sorcery spells you cast.
  4. Infinite magecraft triggers.
  5. Infinite storm count.
  6. Infinite untap of basic lands you control.
