+2: Create a 2/2 black Zombie creature token. 0: You may sacrifice a creature. If you do, add {B}{B}{B}. −5: Create a Lord of the Pit token. (It's a {4}{B}{B}{B} 7/7 Demon creature with flying, trample, and "At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice another creature. If you can't, this token deals 7 damage to you.") Thomil, the Destroyer can be your commander.
Predicted power
Standard — Eng.NLUsr.—
Pioneer — Eng.NLUsr.—
Modern 23 Eng.FUsr.—

Much slower and narrower than Teferi, Hero of Dominaria (55); no supplied shell makes sacrificing a creature for BBB competitive.

Band speculativeConfidence 66%

Could be wrong if A cheap fodder-plus-payoff combo could make its one-shot mana conversion worth the five-mana setup.

Legacy 28 Eng.FUsr.—

Even with Dark Ritual, it is slower and less self-contained than Kaito, Bane of Nightmares (58); only niche combo testing is likely.

Best home Fast-mana sacrifice comboBand speculativeConfidence 59%

Could be wrong if Legacy fast mana and recursive creatures may enable a stronger early sequence than projected.

Pauper — Eng.NLUsr.—
Commander 48 Eng.C-Usr.—

Command-zone access provides repeatable fodder and a sacrifice-to-BBB outlet, but five mana and no card advantage keep it narrow.

Best home Mono-black sacrificeBand role-playerConfidence 62%

Could be wrong if Reliable commander access may drive more aristocrats adoption than its slow multiplayer floor suggests.

Limited 86 Eng.AUsr.—

Its +2 makes a 2/2 at six loyalty, then -5 creates a self-feeding 7/7 flyer; that sustained threat is a bomb.

Best home Black token-sacrifice deckBand bombConfidence 49%

Could be wrong if Unknown speed and removal may punish a five-mana setup before the Demon sequence matters.

“A slow five-mana sacrifice engine in Constructed, but its token-to-Demon sequence is a major Limited threat.”
