Rationale

8cmc 7/6 trample Phyrexian Praetor. Doubles your own mana while locking down opponent's lands (soft-lock via symmetry-breaking). Signature top-end financer in ramp-big-mana and stax-prison shells that leverage the asymmetric mana advantage. Too slow for aggro/tempo, but a game-ending threat + mana-denial combo that justifies the cost in longer formats.
