This clever loop relies on the brilliant counter-balancing act between Rendclaw Trow and Stalwart Successor: whenever the Trow returns via its persist ability carrying a -1/-1 counter, the Successor steps in to place a +1/+1 counter on it, effectively neutralizing the counter type and resetting the creature so persist can trigger all over again. By feeding Rendclaw Trow to Yahenni, Undying Partisan's sacrifice ability, you trigger the entire cycle while simultaneously fueling Yahenni with a steady stream of death triggers and a growing stack of +1/+1 counters. It is a wonderfully resilient little engine that turns a humble goblin rogue and a loyal retainer into an endless fountain of sacrifices.
