Victimize does the heavy lifting: cast it by sacrificing a spare creature, recur Eternal Witness and Priest of Gix simultaneously, and the triggers chain themselves. Priest of Gix refunds three black mana on entry, Eternal Witness retrieves Victimize, and Tormod, the Desecrator prints two 2/2 Zombies per iteration — one for each creature entering the graveyard. Carrion Feeder is the sacrifice outlet that also banks the loop's redundancy as +1/+1 counters, making it the hardest piece to replace.

Recipe

How it works

01

Prerequisites

You control at least one additional creature.

02

Steps

  1. Activate Carrion Feeder twice by sacrificing Priest of Gix and Eternal Witness, putting two +1/+1 counters on Carrion Feeder.
  2. Cast Victimize by paying {2}{B} and sacrificing another creature, returning Eternal Witness and Priest of Gix from your graveyard to the battlefield.
  3. Eternal Witness and Priest of Gix enter the battlefield, triggering themselves and Tormod.
  4. Resolve the Priest of Gix trigger, adding {B}{B}{B}.
  5. Resolve the Tormod trigger, creating a 2/2 Zombie creature token.
  6. Resolve the Eternal Witness trigger, returning Victimize from your graveyard to your hand.
  7. Tormod triggers, creating a 2/2 Zombie creature token.
  8. Repeat.

03

Result

Infinite +1/+1 counters on a creature; Infinite creature tokens; Infinite death triggers; Infinite ETB; Infinite LTB; Infinite magecraft triggers; Infinite sacrifice triggers; Infinite storm count

Variations

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Viscera Seer or Altar of Dementia can substitute for Carrion Feeder as the free sacrifice outlet, though Altar mills rather than grows. The loop generates infinite mana and an army but needs a payoff — Blood Artist or Zulaport Cutthroat converts the death triggers into a win, and Grave Pact or Dictate of Erebos clears the board as a slower alternative closer.
