Wake the Dead does all the heavy lifting: cast it at instant speed to reanimate Eternal Witness and Peregrine Drake, untap five lands to refund more than the casting cost, then recur Wake the Dead to hand before sacrificing both creatures to Viscera Seer. The loop runs on any five lands producing 3BB, which is realistic by turn four or five in a Muldrotha, the Gravetide or Tasigur, the Golden Fang shell that already wants creatures in the bin. Opponents can't respond before the loop restarts because Wake the Dead is cast during their own combat step.

Cheaper, tighter, alternate lines

Viscera Seer is the cheapest sac outlet that closes the loop cleanly; Altar of Dementia mills infinitely as a direct swap if the scry payoff isn't enough. Gray Merchant of Asphodel is the canonical kill here — recur it into the loop and each ETB drains for the count of black devotion you've assembled.
