Rationale

3cmc legendary 3/3 with deathtouch. Attack trigger: pay X to reanimate target creature of that mana value from graveyard with corpse counter (exiled if it leaves the battlefield). Signature reanimator/graveyard-matters engine in black midrange shells. Risks: attack-trigger-only (needs to be unblocked to function), requires full graveyard for payoff, X-cost is a mana sink trap if you can't pump enough mana.
