Rationale
13cmc legendary Eldrazi with cost reduction per card type in graveyard (can cast from 0 mana if all types present). ETB: control target opponent's next turn, then they take an extra turn. Flying, trample, protection from instants makes it a resilient evasive finisher. Signature in graveyard-matters and reanimator shells where cost reduction is maximized; also combo piece for control effects. Anti-tempo/aggro due to prohibitive mana cost. Removal-magnet: must be answered immediately as it directly controls opponent.
