The 4 combo pieces

What must be in place

Callous Sell-Sword does not have a -1/-1 counter on it.

How to execute it

  1. Cast Whim of Volrath by paying {U}, changing all instances of "white" on Antler Skulkin to "black" until end of turn.
  2. Activate Antler Skulkin by paying {2}, giving Callous Sell-Sword persist until end of turn.
  3. Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing Callous Sell-Sword, adding {C}{C}.
  4. When Callous Sell-Sword dies, its persist ability triggers, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield with a -1/-1 counter on it.
  5. Callous Sell-Sword enters the battlefield with an additional +1/+1 counter on it for each creature you controlled that died this turn.
  6. Repeat from step 2.
