Stalwart Successor + Yahenni, Undying Partisan

Stalwart Successor

Yahenni, Undying Partisan

How it works

1. Activate Yahenni by sacrificing the creature with persist.
2. When that creature dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.
3. When that creature enters, Stalwart Successor triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
4. Remove a +1/+1 and a -1/-1 counter from that creature as a state-based action.
5. Resolve the Yahenni ability.
6. Repeat.
