This delightful synergy transforms Marath, Will of the Wild into a self-sustaining engine by utilizing its own ability to fund the creation of fodder. You pay one mana and remove a counter from Marath to create an Elemental token, which you then sacrifice to Phyrexian Altar to recoup that exact mana. The real magic happens when Death's Presence watches that token die, channeling its power straight back into Marath as a brand-new +1/+1 counter to replace the one you spent. This creates an endless loop of sacrifices and counter replenishment, easily producing infinite death triggers, enters-the-battlefield effects, and mana.
