Rationale
4cmc indestructible legend. As long as black devotion <5, it's an enchantment. Signature aristocrats card: draws on creature death (pay 2 life) and sacs creatures for -2/-1 removal. Deck-building constraint: requires devotion to black (typically ≥5 black symbols), plus high creature density for both triggers and sacrifice targets. Life-cost and slow setup balance the card draw engine.
