Artifact

Read rules for Spellweaver Helix
Imprint — When this artifact enters, you may exile two target sorcery cards from a single graveyard. Whenever a player casts a card, if it has the same name as one of the cards exiled with this artifact, you may copy the other. If you do, you may cast the copy without paying its mana cost.

With 2 Shocks and 2 Lightning Bolts the various graveyards (using something like Traumatize
to put them there), drop two Spellweaver Helix.  Each one imprinting a Bolt and a Shock.  Now whenever you cast a Bolt or Shock it will trigger both of the Helix's.  When one resolves it will cast a copy of the other and trigger the other Helix.  You can keep doing this and end up with a stack with thousands of triggers to wipe the board and kill your opponents when you decide to finally decline the option trigger from the Helix.  Also, if your opponent somehow manages to prevent what damage would have been lethal you've got 1 more trigger that you haven't responded to at the bottom of the stack so you can restart the damage :).

Not a great combo in that it needs 6 cards, but all you really need is 2 helix's and 2 spells that have 2 copies among the various graveyards.  Using your opponents 2 Ponder
s and your 2 shocks, or their 2 Brainstorm
and your 2 Manamorphose

should still win the game :)

 

The combo doesn't work see the comment from Boyachi, thanks.

Err, sorry, replace those with other good sorcerys :), I'll just post a more viable version.

Double Spellweaver Helix won't do what you want it to do. S.H. activates whenever a CARD of the imprinted name is played, not a spell. S.H. farts in the corner as spell copies are played.

Argh! you're right.

Well, it looked good while I was blinded by my Magical-Christmas-Land brand glasses :)
