Commander Spellbook ↗How it works
Before you start
Thragtusk does not have a +1/+1 counter on it. Your life total is at least 2.
Steps
Activate Yawgmoth's first ability by paying 1 life and sacrificing Thragtusk. Thragtusk dies, triggering its second ability and its undying ability. Resolve the first Thragtusk trigger, creating a 3/3 Beast creature token. Resolve the second Thragtusk trigger, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it. Thragtusk enters the battlefield, causing you to gain five life. Resolve the Yawgmoth ability from step 1, putting a -1/-1 counter on a creature and causing you to draw a card. Activate Yawgmoth by paying 1 life and sacrificing the Beast token, putting a -1/-1 counter on Thragtusk and causing you to draw a card. Repeat.
