Mindcrank + Bloodchief Ascension w/ 3 counters = Infinite combo

or

Mindcrank + Duskmantle Guildmage = Infinite combo

When Bloodchief Ascension has 3 counters and/or you activate Duskmantle Guildmage's ability, all you have to do is have Mindcrank in play. With Mindcrank whenever an opponent loses life, that player puts that many cards from the top of his or her library into his or her graveyard. Which causes an infinite loop milling your opponents deck, while making them loose life.

Once you have the pieces all you have to do is deal direct damage to your opponent or have them put a card in their graveyard through some other means. It's even sweeter when they activate it by accident.

This is a Grixis control deck with a combo win condition. You don't need the combo to win, but it's even sweeter when you get it off.
