Caretaker's Talent + Doppelgang + Mirror Room // Fractured Realm
- Infinite card draw
Commander Spellbook ↗How it works
Before you start
Fractured Realm is unlocked.
Steps
Cast Doppelgang by paying {6}{G}{U}, creating two token copies of Caretaker's Talent and a land that enters the battlefield untapped and can tap to produce at least {W}. When the Caretaker's Talent tokens enter the battlefield, they each trigger, causing you to draw two cards. Activate a land token by tapping it, adding at least {W}. Activate a Caretaker's Talent token by paying {W}, causing it to become level 2. The token's second ability triggers twice. Resolve the first trigger, creating a copy of a land token. Resolve the second trigger, creating a copy of a Caretaker's Talent token. When the Caretaker's Talent token enters the battlefield, it triggers, causing you to draw a card. Repeat from step 3.
Caretaker's Talent + There and Back Again + Meticulous Excavation
- Infinite card draw
- Near-infinite colored mana
- Near-infinite Treasure tokens
Commander Spellbook ↗How it works
Before you start
There and Back Again has exactly two lore counters on it. Caretaker's Talent is level 1.
Steps
At the beginning of your precombat main phase, There and Back Again triggers, putting a lore counter on it. There and Back Again's third chapter ability triggers, creating a legendary 6/6 Smaug creature token and causing you to sacrifice There and Back Again. Caretaker's Talent's first ability triggers, causing you to draw a card. Activate Caretaker's Talent by paying {W}, putting a level counter on it. Caretaker's Talent's second ability triggers, creating a copy of the Smaug token. Put either Smaug token into your graveyard due to the legend rule. The Smaug token that died triggers, and Caretaker's Talent's first ability triggers if it hasn't yet triggered this turn. Resolve the Caretaker's Talent trigger, if applicable, causing you to draw a card. Resolve the Smaug trigger, creating fourteen Treasure tokens. Activate seven Treasures by tapping and sacrificing them, adding {4}{W}{W}{W}. Activate Meticulous Excavation by paying {2}{W}, returning Caretaker's Talent from the battlefield to your hand. Cast Caretaker's Talent by paying {2}{W}. Repeat from step 4.
