Bouncing and recuring Gonti is a central theme of this deck. Along the way we have a lot of methods for generating tokens for sacrificial fodder and just generally have a good time with other players cards.

Mikaeus, the Unhallowed is a big part of how I intend to recur Gonti, Lord of Luxury. So other cards that remove +1/+1 counters like Retribution of the Ancients, Hex Parasite, and Harbinger of Night are essential. Cauldron of Souls actually strikes an effective equilibrium with Mikaeus allowing you to balance deaths between undying and persist depending on the counters on creatures. When Mikaeus isn't around we rely on other recursion outlets to get Gonti back, so we can sac him and use his etb effect as many times as possible. There are flicker sources in here as well for maximum Gonti Dumpster-Diving.

Genesis Chamber + Desecrated Tomb are incredibly useful when used together in this deck. The ability to just generate tokens can be extremely powerful in a deck built around sacrificing all of the things.

Thornbite Staff + Hell's Caretaker + Creature/token= Infinite Creature Recursion
