How to execute this combo

The "Karmic Guide + Reveillark + Altar of Dementia" combo takes 6 steps in order. Make sure you have the mana open and permanents listed in the prerequisites before you start — opponents can respond between steps.

The end result: Infinite death triggers, Infinite ETB, Infinite LTB, Infinite mill, Infinite sacrifice triggers, Infinite self-mill, Infinite recursion of creature cards with power 2 or less.

Practice the line offline: lay out the cards, walk through each step, and note where you can lose the combo (summoning sickness, lack of priority, removal on a key permanent). In game, announce each step clearly; in casual play you can offer to shortcut after demonstrating the loop.

The best window is a turn when opponents are tapped out or after they commit a spell — hold protection (a counter, Vexing Shusher) if the combo wins on the spot.
