The Sharuum infinite combo is pretty well-known by this point:

Put a Sharuum down.
Put another Sharuum down.
Trigger the Legendary rule AFTER Sharuum's effect.
Resolve the stack.

Result: Both Sharuum hit the graveyard, but one returns... which brings back the other one. There you go, infinite loop.

All you need to do now is combo it with something that deals damage, gives life, mills, puts +1/+1 counters (Some GW creature in Ravnica)...

Ouch.

Even if this is somehow countered (and one of them is sent to the graveyard), smart playing can restart the combo. If one of them are removed from game... well... you might need another.

Still, you can get in 2 triggers (i.e. 10 damage from Where Ancients Tread) before they can respond and the entire stack must resolve, but one can still get itself back if it was destroyed on the stack, adding another trigger (i.e. another 5 from Where Ancients Tread). Plus... if you wanted to end it, grab another artifact.

Whoops, not infinite Storm... infinite Gravestorm.

Sorry for any confusion.
