Whenever this creature attacks, you may sacrifice another creature. If you do, put a number of +1/+1 counters on this creature equal to the sacrificed creature's power. When this creature dies, amass Goblins X, where X is this creature's power. (Put X +1/+1 counters on an Army you control. It's also a Goblin. If you don't control an Army, create a 0/0 black Goblin Army creature token first.)
Predicted power
Standard 50 Eng.CUsr.

Around Colorstorm Stallion's 50 benchmark: resilient with token fodder, but its attack-only outlet and weak 3/2 floor confine it to fringe sacrifice lists.

Best home Black token-sacrificeBand fringeConfidence 53%

Could be wrong if Unrevealed token and sacrifice payoffs could either fail to support a shell or make this a substantially stronger engine.

Pioneer 31 Eng.D-Usr.

Three mana with no immediate effect and an attack-only sacrifice outlet is inefficient here; it needs a dedicated fodder shell to justify testing.

Band fringeConfidence 62%

Could be wrong if A proven Pioneer token-sacrifice shell could make the scalable death trigger worth the tempo cost.

Modern 24 Eng.FUsr.

It must untap, attack, and have spare fodder before generating value, a low-impact sequence against Modern's cheap interaction and faster engines.

Band speculativeConfidence 70%

Could be wrong if A compact sacrifice combo that exploits its power-scaled death trigger could create a niche absent from current context.

Legacy 19 Eng.FUsr.

A three-mana 3/2 without immediate value is far below Legacy's rate; requiring combat and another creature makes its payoff too delayed.

Band speculativeConfidence 74%

Could be wrong if An unusually efficient sacrifice or reanimation shell could use the death trigger better than expected.

Pauper Eng.NLUsr.
Commander 47 Eng.C-Usr.

Token-aristocrat decks can turn fodder into a growing attacker and retain a sizable Army on death, though the once-per-combat outlet is restrictive.

Best home Black token aristocratsBand role-playerConfidence 68%

Could be wrong if More efficient, repeatable sacrifice outlets may leave this attack-gated option outclassed.

Limited 79 Eng.A-Usr.

Even unassisted it leaves a 3/3 Army on death; disposable creatures can turn it into a large, resilient two-body threat. Lack of evasion keeps it below bomb.

Best home Black token decksBand first-pickConfidence 45%

Could be wrong if An exile/bounce-heavy or very fast format reduces the death trigger's value; archetypes and removal texture are unknown.

Sacrifice payoff attacker

“A fragile attack-triggered sacrifice payoff whose death converts its power into an Army, strongest where disposable creatures are plentiful.”

AI prediction made before release — not a measured result. Real performance data replaces this once the set is legal and tournament results come in.
