Sounds like the one he showed you. Variations of it were featured on Daily MTG.
Of course, I'm sure there are many other infinite combo mana decks outside Standard.

There are tons of ways to generate infinite mana with magic.
This site has a list (but there are a lot more out there and this list is outdated).
Typically, with infinite mana decks, they end with Fireball like cards.

There are hundreds, if not thousands of possible infinite combos, including a bunch of ways to gain infinite mana. Without knowing which particular combo they were talking about I couldn't tell you which deck they meant. A lot of the combos involve so many cards that they're unplayable, but there are also a lot of smaller, very playable ones.

i want a deck that hits your weak spot, so what deck does that

Well...The problem is, every deck has a different weak spot; but it sounds like you may want some kind of cruel control deck. One of my favorite versions (non-standard though) is Pox. It's a cool concept and works fairly well.

But, if that doesn't catch your fancy, you're going to have to be more specific.

An infinite combo is a combination of cards, typically 2-4 of them, that, when used in conjunction with each other, give infinite of any one resource. Combos like this include:
Pestermite , Deadeye Navigator , Gilded Lotus .
Food Chain , Misthollow Griffin .
Black Lotus , Auriok Salvagers .
Hope this helped.

The current infinite mana combos in standard that I know of include:
Elite Arcanist , Triton Tactics , Axebane Guardian + 1 defender
Elite Arcanist , Triton Tactics , Gyre Sage
Elite Arcanist , Triton Tactics , Karametra's Acolyte
Elite Arcanist , Triton Tactics , Voyaging Satyr , Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx + devotion to green or blue of 4
Then there's my favorite that doesn't produce infinite mana but just wins on it's own:
Elite Arcanist , Triton Tactics , Zhur-Taa Druid
I'm sure there are more out there that don't use Elite Arcanist and Triton Tactics but I don't know about them

An infinite combo is a combo that never ends, E.G. Life and Limb , Sporemound , and a Forest , or you could just look at my deck,
