the back of a classic MtG card

Color Identity: B, G

Cards

  1. Altar of Dementia

Initial Card State

  1.  All permanents on the battlefield (Persist Creature without a -1/-1 counter on it).

Steps

  1. Activate Altar of Dementia by sacrificing the Persist Creature.
  2. When the Persist Creature dies, its persist ability and Gorma trigger.
  3. Resolve the Gorma trigger, putting a +1/+1 counter on it.
  4. Resolve the persist trigger, returning it from your graveyard to the battlefield with at least one +1/+1 counter on it due to Gorma.
  5. Remove a +1/+1 and a -1/-1 counter from that creature as a state-based action.
  6. Resolve the Altar of Dementia ability.
  7. Repeat.
