Rationale
4cmc legendary creature with two self-synergistic abilities: discard outlet that casts creatures from graveyard (once per turn), and haste-granter for creatures not cast from hand. Signature in reanimator and graveyard-matters shells; strong in aristocrats/combo. Requires graveyard density and discard outlets to maximize value; once-per-turn activation and discard cost are notable build constraints.
