How it works

  1. Activate Yahenni by sacrificing Scuzzback Marauders
  2. When Scuzzback Marauders dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.
  3. When Scuzzback Marauders enters, Stalwart Successor triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on Scuzzback Marauders
  4. Resolve the Yahenni ability.
  5. Repeat.

This clever loop turns your graveyard into a revolving door by leveraging the interplay between persist and counter-placement. When you use Yahenni, Undying Partisan to sacrifice Scuzzback Marauders, the Marauders return via persist with a -1/-1 counter, which immediately triggers Stalwart Successor to drop a +1/+1 counter on it; these two counters instantly annihilate each other as a state-based action, leaving the Marauders fresh and ready to be sacrificed all over again. Meanwhile, Yahenni feeds endlessly on the resulting death triggers, growing into a massive threat while keeping itself safe with its own built-in protection.
