   Prerequisites

What do I need to start this combo?
Marath in the command zone.
Food Chain and Mana Echoes on the battlefield.
Marath must be your commander.
 plus enough mana to pay for commander tax, if applicable available

   Steps

How does this combo work?
1
Cast Marath by paying plus commander tax, if applicable, causing it to enter the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it for each mana spent to cast it.
2
When Marath enters the battlefield, Mana Echoes triggers, adding for each Elemental and/or Beast you control.
3
Activate Marath by paying 1 and removing a +1/+1 counter from it, creating a 1/1 Elemental creature token.
4
When the Elemental enters the battlefield, Mana Echoes triggers, adding for each Elemental you control.
5
Repeat from step 3 until Marath has one +1/+1 counter on it.
6
Activate Food Chain by exiling Marath, adding that can only be spent to cast creature spells.
7
Choose to return Marath to the command zone from exile.
8
Activate Food Chain twice by exiling two Elemental tokens, adding that can only be spent to cast creature spells.
9
Repeat.
