Legendary Creature — Imp
Flying Whenever Blim deals combat damage to a player, that player gains control of target permanent you control. Then each player loses life and discards cards equal to the number of permanents they control but don't own.

“Attack with a flying imp to gift permanents and drain/discard opponents into submission.”
Blim is a chaos engine that punishes opponents for playing Magic. Your core gameplan is to attack with Blim and force-gift your worst permanents to opponents, then watch them suffer as the life loss and discard trigger scales with how many permanents they control. The deck wants to fill the board with cheap, annoying permanents—tokens, enchantments, artifact tokens—that create asymmetrical value when opponents inherit them. You're not trying to win through combat; you're winning by creating a political and resource nightmare. Each trigger makes opponents lose life and discard, snowballing into a slow grind where you maintain board control while they choke on permanents they didn't want.
The best permanents to gift are tokens (which disappear if they die), cheap mana rocks, and cards that punish board presence. Pack your deck with free-to-cheap token generators, sacrifice outlets, and repeatable effects that don't mind changing hands. You'll want cards that generate value whether you own them or not—like Ophiomancer or cards with repeatable ETB effects. Win by attrition: opponents crumble under the life loss and discard tax, while you stay ahead on resources by controlling what gets donated.

Skip expensive planeswalkers; use token doublers like Doubling Season (or budget Doubling Token alternatives) and swap pricey tutors for cheaper artifact ramp like Everflowing Chalice and Myriad Landscape.
