It's based on the fact that Karn, the Great Creator can both return Pestilent Cauldron  ^Flip from the side and return it from exile once it's cast as Restorative Burst  ^Flip.

The preparation of the combo is having Nykthos in play with enough devotion, two copies of Karn and two copies of Kiora, Behemoth Beckoner spread across your hand, the battlefield, and your graveyard.

You tap Nykthos for at least 14 mana.
Cast Karn2 for 4 mana, Karn1 is legendary rule-d in the yard.
Karn2 gets Pestilent Cauldron from the side.
Cast Kiora2 for 3 mana, Kiora1 is legendary rule-d in the yard.
Kiora2 untaps Nykthos.
You cast Restorative Burst for 5 mana and it gets exiled, get back Karn1 and Kiora1 from the yard, and gain 4 life.
You spend the last 2 mana for Nykthos and add at least 14 mana.

It's infinite life and infinite mana, the latter of whom lets you cast the front side of Pestilent Cauldron with one of the few black sources in your deck and mill your opponent.
