Goblin Bombardment + Krenko, Mob Boss + Thornbite Staff
Overview
With Goblin Bombardment, Krenko, Mob Boss equipped with Thornbite Staff, you can loop to produce arbitrarily many Goblins and deal arbitrarily many points of damage by repeating: tap Krenko to create Goblin tokens (Krenko counts itself when determining X) [Ruling 2012-07-01], then sacrifice one token to Goblin Bombardment to deal 1 damage ; the token's death causes Thornbite Staff's triggered ability to untap the equipped creature when it resolves , letting you tap Krenko again and repeat. Tokens that leave the battlefield cease to exist in other zones , and if the equipped creature leaves the battlefield the Equipment becomes unattached .
Step 1
Have Krenko, Mob Boss on the battlefield with Thornbite Staff attached to it and Goblin Bombardment under your control; ensure Krenko can be tapped (no summoning sickness).
Step 2
Activate Krenko’s ability by paying its cost including 
; when that ability resolves it creates X 1/1 red Goblin tokens where X is the number of Goblins you control (Krenko counts itself for X) [Ruling 2012-07-01].
; when that ability resolves it creates X 1/1 red Goblin tokens where X is the number of Goblins you control (Krenko counts itself for X) [Ruling 2012-07-01].Step 3
Activate Goblin Bombardment’s ability by sacrificing one of the Goblin tokens as the cost; that sacrifice removes the token from the battlefield (tokens that leave the battlefield cease to exist in other zones) .
Step 4
When Goblin Bombardment’s ability resolves it deals 1 damage to the chosen target (if it’s a player, they lose 1 life) .
Step 5
The death of the sacrificed creature causes Thornbite Staff’s triggered ability 'Whenever a creature dies, untap this creature' to trigger; when that trigger resolves it untaps Krenko, letting you activate Krenko’s tap ability again .
Step 6
Repeat: each time you tap Krenko you create tokens equal to the current number of Goblins you control (including Krenko) [Ruling 2012-07-01], then sacrifice one token to Goblin Bombardment to deal 1 damage and re-untap Krenko via Thornbite’s trigger, producing arbitrarily many Goblins and damage.
Resolution
If you control Krenko, Thornbite Staff attached to Krenko, and Goblin Bombardment, you can generate an unbounded loop of Krenko activations and sacrifices: Tap Krenko to create X 1/1 Goblin tokens (X counts every Goblin you control, including Krenko) [Ruling 2012-07-01]; sacrifice a token to Goblin Bombardment to deal 1 damage (damage to a player is applied as life loss) ; that creature’s death causes Thornbite Staff’s trigger “Whenever a creature dies, untap this creature” to trigger and (when it resolves) untap Krenko so you can activate it again . Repeating this produces arbitrarily many tokens and damage. Note important limits: tokens that leave the battlefield cease to exist , and if Krenko (the equipped creature) leaves the battlefield the Equipment becomes unattached and cannot untap it .
