Bloodstained Mire kicks off the chain by fetching a land, which simultaneously triggers Kodama of the East Tree and Curse of the Restless Dead; Kodama drops Ghost Town onto the battlefield for free, and Ghost Town's bounce ability returns it to hand before the dust settles, resetting the loop. The whole engine runs on an opponent's turn — Kodama's trigger requires the permanent enter alongside another permanent entering, and Ghost Town's free return keeps feeding that condition indefinitely once the first token hits.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Any fetchland that tutors a legal target works as the starter — Verdant Catacombs and Marsh Flats are the cleanest fits in black-green but any fetch with overlap into the library suffices. The loop creates tokens but doesn't close on its own; pair it with Zulaport Cutthroat or Altar of Dementia to convert the infinite token stream into a kill before passing priority back.
