This loop operates on a clever resource conversion, using Warren Soultrader to transform a living creature into a Treasure and a fresh source of life. Because Gravecrawler can be repeatedly cast straight from your graveyard as long as you have a Zombie friend around, the mana generated by sacrificing that Treasure covers the re-entry cost entirely. Meanwhile, Auriok Champion sits safely on the battlefield providing a steady cushion of lifegain every single time Gravecrawler returns, neatly offsetting the life you pay to the Soultrader and allowing you to loop the process indefinitely.
