Rationale

2cmc legendary creature with deathtouch; ETB and death-trigger drains/lifegain engine. Signature in tokens-go-wide and aristocrats shells where creature density is high—each token entry and sacrifice generates asymmetric life swing. Requires many creatures entering/dying to shine; marginal outside token/sacrifice strategies.
