I was told there would be a pauper tournament at school, and wanted to try something dirt cheap and still fun. So I found an infinite combo with Banishing Knack/Retraction Helix and thought of what to do with it. First it was infinite tokens. I had elves, merfolk, and golems; using Essence Warden for infinite life. The problem was it was three color (WUG), slow, and inconsistent. So I thought of making it burn to death rather than token to death, so came the present build. So here's the combo: 0 cost artifact+Banishing Knack/Retraction Helix+Battered Golem/ Mirran Spy / Nettle Drone +Reckless Fireweaver/ Impact Tremors / Nettle Drone (Nettle Drone only fills one slot, not both). With Golem and Fireweaver in play, you cast Knack on Golem, play a 0 cost artifact(burning for 1 by Fireweaver), and tap Golem to return your artifact to hand. You cast it again, untapping Golem, and repeat for game.

It wins turn 4 or 5 undisrupted
