My favorite new one is to build a controlish r/u/whatever you want deck with firemind's foresight. Here's the sick combo, it requires 8 mana, 7 of which has to come from lands. After casting foresight, go get Lightning Bolt, Reset, and Reiterate. Opponent's upkeep, cast Reset and before resolution cast reiterate with buyback targeting reset. Untap all lands from reiterate, repeat for infinite mana. Cast bolt and copy infinite times with reiterate.

I think my favorite part about this combo is that it's pretty much a 1 card combo and 2 of the cards you get from it you'll probably want to play anyway. I think this is pretty at home in most r/w/u control decks, especially ones that use/abuse sunforger since chances are you'll have a LOT more firemind's foresight targets. I currently play this in my Jhoira EDH because it gives me a nice alternate win condition if they get some sort of prison lock on me and I need to win in a turn. Also all three of those cards are just killer in that deck, copying time walk effects, killing annoying critters/pws so spells can resolve, and resetting for MAJOR eot suspends is exactly what I want to do. And tutor up counterspells/time counter shenanigans if I have nothing better to do.

I find that the really cool part of the combo in a deck like mine is that no one really expects you to storm them out and it's pretty resilient. Trinisphere? Cool I wait 1 turn to kill you. Thalia/thorn effects? I wait 2 turns.

Honorable Mentions:
Melira/persist combos (easy to pull off with tutors etc. can get insane with greater good)
Mikeaus/persist combos
Kiki combos (though I find these pretty weak since it's all about creatures, its easy to hate, and hard to tutor in r/u decks)
Worldgorger dragon combos (of course with scion of the ur as commander, one of the most resilient and quickest combo edh decks imo)

And there are a lot of other cool ones that aren't exactly infinite in a turn, but given enough time they are. My favorite ones are Angel of Serenity value combos, boy does that card take over the game REAL fast once you get it going.

Got a few infinite combos I'll be running in my Arcum deck:

*Pentavus+Dross Scorpion+Add 3 Mana Artifact = Infinite Mana
*Rings of Brightearth+Basalt Monolith = Infinite Mana
*Rings of Brightearth+Voltaic Key+Basalt Monolith+Myr Turbine = Infinite Mana/Tokens
*Rings of Brightearth+Voltaic Key+Basalt Monolith+Lux Cannon = Infinite Mana/Removal

Not really sure if this one works like I think it does:
*Time Vault+Voltaic Key/Tezzeret the Seeker = Infinite Turns

Last one doesn't work. Livewire Lash says spells, not abilities.

Didn't think of the composite golem one. I like that.

e/

Mycosynth Lattice + Bludgeon Brawl + Volshok Battlemaster = equip all non-creature permanents on the field and swing.Equipping your opponents lands to your creatures is fun.

yes thanks for correcting me. yup composite golem is a real easy way for infinite mana especially with tooth and nail just go get him and godo or stoneforge mystic and that's pretty much game.

lol your combo is funny that's like fucking hilarious haha. :)

just realized it doesn't work as good as I though cuz your opponents still control their lands and can still tap them for mana
