How it works

  1. Activate Blasting Station by tapping it and sacrificing Priest of Gix.
  2. When Priest of Gix dies, Rakdos triggers.
  3. Holding priority, activate Haunted Crossroads by paying B mana, putting Priest of Gix from your graveyard onto the top of your library.
  4. Resolve the Rakdos trigger, causing you to exile the top three cards of your library with the ability to play them until your next end step.
  5. Resolve the Blasting Station ability from step 1, dealing 1 damage to any target.
  6. Cast Priest of Gix from exile by paying 2.
  7. When Priest of Gix enters the battlefield, it and Blasting Station trigger.
  8. Resolve the Priest of Gix trigger, adding B manaB manaB mana.
  9. Resolve the Blasting Station trigger, untapping it.
  10. Repeat.

This looping loop relies on the cost-reduction of Thunderscape Familiar to make casting Priest of Gix from exile uniquely profitable, turning its three black mana into a surplus of fuel. As you sacrifice the Priest to Blasting Station, Rakdos, the Muscle triggers to exile the top of your library (since Priest of Gix has a mana value of three), letting you continue to play and replay the creature. Haunted Crossroads acts as your safety net to manipulate the top of your library when needed, ensuring the engine keeps humming until you've burned out the entire table with Blasting Station's repeated damage.
