This loop relies on turning enchantments into creatures with Opalescence, allowing Altered Ego to enter the battlefield as a copy of the enchantment Rakdos Joins Up. Because multiple copies of a legendary permanent trigger the legend rule, the newly copied Altered Ego instantly dies, which triggers its own ability to return itself from the graveyard while simultaneously using Rakdos Joins Up's second ability to blast an opponent with damage. By repeatedly looping this entry and death cycle, you continuously retrigger the original Rakdos Joins Up alongside the recursion of Altered Ego to deal infinite damage.
