Wake the Dead does the heavy lifting: cast during an opponent's combat step, it returns Peregrine Drake and Eternal Witness, whose ETBs untap five lands and recover Wake the Dead itself. Carrion Feeder eats both creatures at end of turn as required, banking two +1/+1 counters per loop while the land mana resets to fuel the next iteration. The combo lives in Sultai graveyard shells — Muldrotha, the Gravetide and Gitrog Monster decks are the natural homes.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Viscera Seer replaces Carrion Feeder if scry value matters more than counter accumulation, and any free or cheap sacrifice outlet that doesn't require tapping works. The loop generates infinite death triggers but needs a payoff beyond Carrion Feeder's counters to close — Blood Artist, Altar of Dementia, or Zulaport Cutthroat converts those triggers into a table kill.
