The Master of Keys + Scholar of the Ages + Burnt Offering + Corpse Churn + Animate Dead

The Master of Keys

Scholar of the Ages

Burnt Offering

Corpse Churn

Animate Dead

How it works

1. Cast Burnt Offering by paying and sacrificing Scholar of the Ages, adding seven .
2. Cast Corpse Churn by paying 1, causing you to mill three cards.
3. Cast Animate Dead from your graveyard for its escape cost by paying 1 and exiling three cards not used in the combo, returning Scholar of the Ages from your graveyard to the battlefield and attaching Animate Dead to it.
4. Repeat.

This elaborate loop centers around The Master of Keys, whose static ability grants every enchantment in your graveyard escape, effectively turning your graveyard into a second hand for key pieces like Animate Dead. You use Animate Dead to repeatedly resurrect Scholar of the Ages, whose entry trigger continually returns vital spells like Burnt Offering and Corpse Churn to your hand. By sacrificing the Scholar to Burnt Offering, you generate the black mana needed to fuel the cycle and cast Corpse Churn, ensuring you have enough fodder in your graveyard to keep paying Animate Dead's escape cost over and over.
