Champion of the Weird + Flayer of the Hatebound + Dross Harvester

Champion of the Weird

Flayer of the Hatebound

Dross Harvester

How it works

1. Activate Champion of the Weird by paying 1 life and putting two -1/-1 counters on Flayer of the Hatebound.
2. Flayer of the Hatebound dies due to having 0 toughness, triggering its undying ability and Dross Harvester
3. Resolve the Dross Harvester trigger, causing you to gain 2 life.
4. Resolve the Flayer of the Hatebound trigger, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it.
5. When Flayer of the Hatebound enters, it triggers, dealing damage to any target.
6. Resolve the Champion of the Weird ability from step 1, causing an opponent to blight 2.
7. Activate Champion of the Weird by paying 1 life and putting two -1/-1 counters on Flayer of the Hatebound, causing an opponent to blight 2.
8. Repeat.

This loop turns Champion of the Weird into a repeatable executioner by repeatedly shrinking Flayer of the Hatebound with its activated ability until it succumbs to state-based actions. Each time Flayer of the Hatebound hits the graveyard, its undying ability brings it right back with a +1/+1 counter to reset its toughness, which simultaneously triggers its own damage ability and feeds Dross Harvester's life-gaining trigger to offset the activation costs. As this violent cycle spins endlessly, Flayer of the Hatebound deals lethal damage and Champion of the Weird repeatedly forces your foes to blight away their resources.
