My friend's Scion deck seems to use Animate Dead + Scourge of Valkas + Worldgorger Dragon to complete the combo I mentioned. You need to have Worldgorger in your graveyard, Animate Dead in your hand, and the other dragon in play to trigger an infinite loop that kills all opponents. Since Scion can tutor Worldgorger into your graveyard at any time, it's just a matter of getting the other pieces into place.

Necromancy and Dance of the Dead can also replace Animate Dead for the combo. You can use other ETB damage effects besides this dragon as well, that is just what my friend decided to use.
