Exile the Battle Hymn with Elite Arcanist, and let the fun begin.
-Activate the Arcanist, and cast the Battle Hymn.
-Young Pyromancer gives you an elemental token.
-Intruder Alarm untaps your Arcanist.
-Battle Hymn gives you mana equal to your creature count (with only these cards, at least 3).
Repeat as necessary for infinite red mana and tokens to do what you will with.

What if someone copies Elite Arcanist? Does the copy have the same ability of the original? Or he would have to exile a new instant or sorcery card from his hand? In this case, cloning creatures as Artisan of Forms would be useless, since they are already on the battlefield.

If they copy it, they have to exile their own card to cast with it.
