The Gitrog Monster Combo is a complex series of quasi-infinite loops utilizing The Gitrog Monster herself, a free discard outlet, and Dakmor Salvage, along with a few other cards to create a reliable and hard to disrupt instant-speed win against any number of opponents.

In this primer I will break down the individual phases of the combo and different variations based on what resources you have available.
