Rationale
Legendary X/X creature that mills X creatures on cast, filling the graveyard. Power/toughness equal to creature count in yard. Signature in reanimator and graveyard-matters shells where yard density fuels both the ETB mill and the power scaling. Self-mill payoff that doubles as a late-game finisher if the graveyard is stocked. Requires high creature density and graveyard setup to be threatening; slow in early game without X acceleration.
