The 3 combo pieces

What must be in place

You have at least eight artifact and/or creature cards in your graveyard.

How to execute it

  1. Cast Aatchik either from your hand or from the command zone by paying {3}{B}{B}{G} plus commander tax, if applicable.
  2. When Aatchik enters the battlefield, its first ability triggers, creating a 1/1 Insect creature token for each artifact and/or creature card in your graveyard.
  3. Activate Phyrexian Altar eight times by sacrificing eight Insects, adding {4}{B}{B}{G}{G}.
  4. When the Insects die, Aatchik's second ability triggers eight times, putting eight +1/+1 counters on Aatchik and causing each opponent to lose 8 life.
  5. Activate Temur Sabertooth by paying {1}{G}, returning Aatchik from the battlefield to your hand.
  6. Repeat.
