Rationale
2cmc legendary green creature (1/3 snake druid). Tap-ability mills 4, puts one land tapped and rest to GY — fixing + graveyard setup. Channel {X}{X}{G}{G}: discard Shigeki to recur X nonlegendary permanents from GY. Dual mode: ramp + graveyard fill early, late-game flashback for recursion payoff. Signature in self-mill and reanimator shells that abuse GY density. Risks: requires meaningful graveyard setup; channel cost is steep, making it slow without density.
