    How it works

    Steps

    Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing Lord Skitter's Butcher, adding {C}{C}. When Lord Skitter's Butcher dies, Nim Deathmantle triggers, causing you to pay {4} to return Lord Skitter's Butcher from your graveyard to the battlefield and attach Nim Deathmantle to it. When Lord Skitter's Butcher enters, it triggers, creating a creature token. Activate Ashnod's Altar by sacrificing a creature token, adding {C}{C}. Repeat.
