Carrion Feeder + Renata, Called to the Hunt

Carrion Feeder

Renata, Called to the Hunt

How it works

1. Activate Carrion Feeder by sacrificing the persist creature.
2. When the persist creature dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield without a -1/-1 counter on it due to Renata
3. Resolve the Carrion Feeder ability.
4. Repeat

This clever loop harnesses the relentless nature of persist creatures by turning Carrion Feeder into a hungry recycling plant. While your sacrifice outlet handles the heavy lifting of eating your board for power, Renata, Called to the Hunt serves as the crucial enabler from the sidelines; her static ability ensures that whenever your persist creature returns from the grave, the incoming +1/+1 counter immediately neutralizes the dreaded -1/-1 counter it would otherwise carry. By cycling the same creature endlessly through the graveyard and back to the battlefield, you generate infinite sacrifice triggers, death triggers, and a towering Carrion Feeder.
