Rationale
Suki is a 2/4 anthem (other creatures +1/+0) that also generates a 1/1 Ally token whenever any permanent you control leaves the battlefield on your turn, capped at once per turn. She fits token-go-wide as both an anthem and token engine, slots naturally into aristocrats/sacrifice shells (sac outlet triggers her), and rewards blink strategies (blinking a permanent on your turn fires the trigger). The once-per-turn cap keeps her from being broken but she provides solid incidental value in white midrange/tokens decks at any bracket.
Learnings (3)
Suki's triggered ability fires on ANY permanent leaving the battlefield during your turn — including lands (e.g. via Crop Rotation), enchantments, and artifacts — not just creatures, making her trigger broader than it first appears.

The 'once each turn' restriction means flicker/blink packages that bounce and recast multiple permanents in a single turn only net one Ally token, limiting explosive combo potential.

Suki's Ally subtype on her tokens has minor synergy with Ally-tribal payoffs (Rally triggers, etc.) even outside a dedicated Ally deck, occasionally relevant in Commander brews.
