Rationale
3cmc 4/4 legendary god with menace, lifelink, and indestructible — evasive threat resilient to removal. Combat restricted until seven cards in exile (asymmetric restriction that self-gates aggression). Card-draw engine: whenever cards exile from graveyard/battlefield during your turn, draw and lose 1 life. Signature in graveyard-matters and exile-focused builds (Prosper, Lich decks). Anti-aggro: menace is a minor evasion boost but combat restriction limits early impact, and the required exile density makes it a midrange/grindy deck, not tempo. The lifelink+1-life-loss cycles make it a grind-the-game card.
