Rationale
4cmc 2/3 legendary creature with deathtouch and powerful ETB: loot opp's top 4, exile one face-down for casting with mana of any type. Premier mid-power midrange threat that generates value through forced library selection. Signature in reanimator (can exile and cast threats from opp deck) and doomsday-altwin (library manipulation synergy). Slower than efficient rogue payoffs; vulnerable to creature removal before second activation.
