The 3 combo pieces

What must be in place

You control a permanent that is boosting the toughness of all your creatures by at least 1.
You control at least one additional creature.

How to execute it

  1. Activate Shilgengar's first ability by sacrificing another creature.
  2. When the creature dies, Pitiless Plunderer triggers, creating a Treasure token.
  3. Resolve the Shilgengar ability, creating a Blood token.
  4. Activate the Treasure by tapping and sacrificing it, adding {1}.
  5. Activate Karn by paying {1}, causing the Blood token to become an artifact creature until end of turn. The Blood token will not die due to the permanent stated in the pre-requisites causing its toughness to be 1 or greater.
  6. Repeat.
