Ashnod's Altar and Pitiless Plunderer together convert Eternal Witness's sacrifice into the colorless mana and Treasure needed to fund the next iteration; Doomed Necromancer bridges the graveyard recursion by returning Eternal Witness, which in turn returns Doomed Necromancer to hand on entry. The loop is self-sustaining once all five permanents are live — every cycle costs nothing net and fires death and ETB triggers without bound.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

The combo produces no damage or draw on its own, so it needs a payoff already on the battlefield — Impact Tremors or Zulaport Cutthroat converts infinite deaths into a win, and Altar of Dementia mills the table instead. Viscera Seer can replace Ashnod's Altar if colorless mana generation is covered elsewhere, though Ashnod's is the tighter include for its flexibility outside the loop.
