Rusko, Clockmaker

Not yet bracketed (or genuinely unplaceable).

4cmc legendary 3/3 that ETB conjures Midnight Clock, then drains each opponent 1 and gains 1 life per noncreature spell cast. Signature in spellslinger and control shells where noncreature density is high; fits combo as an alternative clock. Requires substantial noncreature spell count to generate meaningful drain value; slow setup and removal-magnet in midrange/aggro contexts. Commander-legal restriction limits constructed presence.
