Kenrith, the Returned King's 3U activation forces an opponent to draw, triggering Smothering Tithe; Adrix and Nev, Twincasters and Anointed Procession stack to quadruple that trigger, producing four Treasures per activation and making each loop entirely self-funding. The table sees it coming the moment all four permanents are on board — there's no instant-speed disruption window once the loop starts, but any opponent with two spare mana breaks it cold.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Drop either Adrix and Nev or Anointed Procession and the loop collapses — doubling effects are load-bearing here, not incidental. If a faster kill is the goal, swap this line for Kenrith paired with a Laboratory Maniac effect targeting yourself; the four-piece Smothering Tithe assembly is a fragile win condition for a 5-color shell that can almost certainly do better.
