How it works

  1. Activate Goblin Bombardment by sacrificing Priest of Gix.
  2. When Priest of Gix dies, Pitiless Plunderer and Rakdos trigger.
  3. Resolve the Pitiless Plunderer trigger, creating a Treasure token.
  4. Holding priority, activate Haunted Crossroads by paying B mana, putting Priest of Gix from your graveyard onto the top of your library.
  5. 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.
  6. Resolve the Goblin Bombardment ability from step 1
  7. Activate the Treasure by tapping and sacrificing it, adding 1.
  8. Cast Priest of Gix from exile by paying 3.
  9. When Priest of Gix enters the battlefield, it triggers, adding B manaB manaB mana.
  10. Repeat.

This wicked loop turns the lowly Priest of Gix into an engine of endless doom by feeding it to Goblin Bombardment for a steady stream of damage and death triggers. Pitiless Plunderer and Haunted Crossroads work in tandem to recycle the Priest, using the generated Treasure token alongside the black mana refunded upon the Priest's reentry to pay for the recursion and recast costs. Meanwhile, Rakdos, the Muscle watches the sacrifices pile up, exiling your entire library card by card so you can play your deck from exile and overwhelm the table.
