This is a tough combo to actually get into play, but if you can pull it off, your opponent will die.

Step 1) Bring the first Faceless butcher into play.
Step 2) Bring the second Faceless butcher into play, and remove the FIRST faceless butcher. NOTE: The card text may confuse you, but you CAN remove another faceless butcher from play; the card text means the card itself, not Faceless butchers in general.
Step 3) Bring the third Faceless butcher into play, removing the second faceless butcher. As a result, the first Faceless butcher comes back into play.
Step 4) The first Faceless butcher coming back into play requires another creature to be removed, so you remove the third Faceless butcher, which brings the second Faceless butcher back in. As you can see, this effect cycles forever.

The end result? Pandemonium is triggered every single time, which allows you to deal damage over and over and over.

Indeed, that is an interesting combo. I agree that it would be tough to pull off.

Interestingly enough, if you use this combo without Pandemonium, and there is no 4th creature in play to break the cycle, it causes the game to be a draw.
