Read rules for Bloodchief Ascension
At the beginning of each end step, if an opponent lost 2 or more life this turn, you may put a quest counter on this enchantment. (Damage causes loss of life.) Whenever a card is put into an opponent's graveyard from anywhere, if this enchantment has three or more quest counters on it, you may have that player lose 2 life. If you do, you gain 2 life.

Get some quest counters on the Ascension, then make your opponents lose some life. Win. Use Syphon Soul in multiplayer for greater shenanigans :D

EDIT: Bah, looks like the main bit of the combo was already posted and the site didn't see it 'cause of the extra card. Doh...

So the Bloodchief deals 2 damage and you lose that many cards and since you lose 2 card off the top it deals 4 damage, etc. etc. etc.?

I like that. 

Is there a way to get the counters on that card without dealing damage?  I understand Proliferate, etc., but I mean something that'll just start putting counters on it, because once that pops it's over!

I don't believe that there is any way to put counters on it to start out with, unless you have another thing with quest counters out.

I think there's this card that puts counters on other permanents...

Fate Transfer and Clockspinning are the only ways, and they only work once there is already a counter somewhere.
