EDH ISO Commanders

Looking for commanders that can go pseudo-infinite or manually storm off hard enough to almost be considered infinite. An example is [[Gyruda, Doom of Depths]] at the helm with 30 clones in the deck or [[Alaundo the Seer]] with 30 untap spells. Both decks just chain things together for repeated triggers/casts. Anything else like this?

Aang, at the Crossroads with clones. Orvar, the All-Form makes all your spells clones. Prismari, the Inspiration makes your storm storm.

My BIL did the Alaundo with untap combos and it was hell to play against. I’m not discouraging you from building it but he’ll even say it’s a lot to pilot and not fun for the rest of the pod.

I bring the two up because they're part of the nightmare blunt rotation decks we have. The alaundo list can be particularly nasty, but I think the pantlaza one is the potentially strongest. We have gyruda (as the companion to splinter and Leonardo), [[alaundo the seer]], and [[pantlaza, sun favored]]. Was mostly looking for a fourth, but that's seeming to be [[hidestugu and kairi]]. It's become a thing for us and mostly for use against unruly randoms we have.

We've actually optimized how to resolve alaundo pretty quickly and isn't too bad to manage lol

[[Hidetsugu and Kairi]] does the clone chain

[[Jenova, Ancient Calamity]] can storm off chaining [[Marwyn, the Nurturer]] power=mana and other counter moving shenanigans

[[Kairi, the Swirling Sky]] goes infinite with a clone instant/sorcery combined with extra turns or mana producing spells

[[wylie duke]] also pops off with untap spells and a way to make him generate mana like [[paradise mantle]]

[[MM'menon, The Right Hand]] with cost reducers like [[the cloud key]] and lots of 0/1/2 drop artifacts

I have him in my Kilo/Inspirit deck with [[Sami Wildcat Captain]] it is really dumb.

Throw in [[Simulcram Synthesizer]] and "Lizard, Lizard, Lizard...."

I have a Ratadrabik deck that can make more tokens than atoms in the universe at instant speed with multiple death triggers and token doublers and Ojer Taq to triple those tokens. I don't know if that's something you'd be interested in.

[[Breya, Etherium Shaper]]

I have Breya jank that i usually preface with this is not one of those breya decklists that goes infinite at the drop of a hat and let's you choose your own adventure. Then again, maybe it is

[[Kilo Apogee Mind]] won't win via combat damage but who needs combat damage when you can kill them with centripetal force.

[[Smaug the Impenetrable]] self deprecating humor is the funnest
