Kambal, Profiteering Mayor

Kambal, Profiteering Mayor is a clever political tool that punishes your opponents for making tokens while rewarding you for doing the same. Your core gameplan is to sit back and let the table generate tokens—whether through creature tokens, treasure tokens, or any other token type—then copy your opponents' tokens for free while draining them for life. This turns their token strategies against them and gives you incremental life gain, slowly shifting the game in your favor.

To maximize Kambal, you want to actively create your own tokens to trigger the second ability repeatedly. Cards that generate tokens at instant speed let you trigger both abilities on the same turn, creating a explosive life swing. You're looking at a midrange deck that scales with the table's activity—the more tokens everyone makes, the more you benefit. Your win condition is usually grinding out opponents with incremental drain damage combined with your growing army of copied tokens, though you can also threaten combat damage if left unchecked.
