Commander Spellbook ↗How it works
Before you start
You have at least eight artifact and/or creature cards in your graveyard.
Steps
Cast Aatchik either from your hand or from the command zone by paying {3}{B}{B}{G} plus commander tax, if applicable. 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. Activate Phyrexian Altar eight times by sacrificing eight Insects, adding {4}{B}{B}{G}{G}. 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. Activate Temur Sabertooth by paying {1}{G}, returning Aatchik from the battlefield to your hand. Repeat.

- Infinite +1/+1 counters on a creature
Commander Spellbook ↗How it works
Before you start
You have at least six artifact and/or creature cards in your graveyard.
Steps
Cast Aatchik either from your hand or from the command zone by paying {3}{B}{B}{G} plus commander tax, if applicable. When Aatchik enters the battlefield, its first ability and Cloudstone Curio trigger. Resolve the Cloudstone Curio trigger, choosing to return nothing to your hand. Resolve the Aatchik trigger, creating a 1/1 Insect creature token for each artifact and/or creature card in your graveyard. When the Insects enter the battlefield, Cloudstone Curio triggers that many times. Holding priority, activate Phyrexian Altar six times by sacrificing six Insects, adding {3}{B}{B}{G}. When the Insects die, Aatchik's second ability triggers six times, putting six +1/+1 counters on Aatchik and causing each opponent to lose 6 life. Resolve the Cloudstone Curio triggers, returning Aatchik from the battlefield to your hand with the first trigger and returning nothing to your hand with each subsequent trigger. Repeat.
Aatchik, Emerald Radian + Esix, Fractal Bloom
- Near-infinite creature tokens
- Near-infinite lifeloss
Commander Spellbook ↗How it works
Before you start
You have enough artifact and/or creature cards in your graveyard (see Notes).
Steps
Cast Aatchik by paying {3}{B}{B}{G}. When Aatchik enters, its first ability triggers, and Esix allows you to create a token copy of Aatchik for each artifact and/or creature card in your graveyard. Put all but one copy of Aatchik into the graveyard due to the legend rule. When each Aatchik token enters, its first ability triggers, and when each Aatchik dies, the last ability of each other Aatchik triggers. Resolve all of the death trigger abilities, causing each opponent to lose 1 life each time and (for the surviving Aatchik's triggers only) putting a +1/+1 counter onto Aatchik. If any opponents remain alive, resolve all of the enter trigger abilities, each time creating a 1/1 Insect creature token for each artifact and/or creature card in your graveyard.
