Warren Soultrader + Mm'menon, Uthros Exile + Popular Egotist

Warren Soultrader

Mm'menon, Uthros Exile

Popular Egotist

How it works

1. Activate Warren Soultrader by paying 1 life and sacrificing the persist creature.
2. When the persist creature dies, its persist ability and Popular Egotist trigger.
3. Resolve the persist trigger, returning the persist creature from your graveyard to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.
4. Resolve the Popular Egotist trigger, causing target opponent to lose 1 life and you to gain 1 life.
5. Resolve the Warren Soultrader ability, creating a Treasure token.
6. When the Treasure enters, Mm'menon triggers, putting a +1/+1 counter on the persist creature.
7. Repeat.

This crafty loop hinges on using Warren Soultrader to sacrifice a creature with persist, which funnels life drain straight to your opponents thanks to Popular Egotist. Every time that sacrifice happens, Warren Soultrader kicks back a Treasure token, whose entry triggers Mm'menon, Uthros Exile to drop a +1/+1 counter onto the returning persist creature. That +1/+1 counter neatly cancels out the creature's -1/+1 counter, resetting the persist loop so you can repeat the whole cycle for infinite life, mana, and token generation.
