How to execute it

- Repeat step 1 until you control at least six Blood tokens.
- Activate Phyrexian Altar by sacrificing another nontoken creature, adding {W/B}.
- Repeat step 3 until you have {W/B}{W/B}{W/B} available.
- Activate Shilgengar by paying {W/B}{W/B}{W/B} and sacrificing six Blood tokens, returning all creature cards from your graveyard to the battlefield without a finality counter on them due to Solemnity.
- Repeat.
- If you control additional nontoken creatures, you may sacrifice them in step 1 to get infinite Blood tokens, and/or in step 3 to get infinite colored mana.
