Korvold, Gleeful Glutton

Korvold is a self-enabling sacrifice powerhouse that rewards you for converting permanents into cards and power. The core gameplan is straightforward: sacrifice artifacts, creatures, enchantments, and lands to reduce Korvold's casting cost, then swing in for combat damage. Every hit triggers a card draw and counter boost tied to your graveyard's diversity, creating a snowball effect where you're simultaneously filling your graveyard and refueling your hand. The deck naturally progresses from ramping and setting up sacrifice outlets into a mid-game where Korvold becomes nearly unblockable and quickly lethal thanks to flying and trample.

You'll fill your graveyard with diverse permanent types to maximize that triggered ability, then leverage sacrifice outlets to turn your board into raw card advantage and stats. Cards like Savvy Hunter, Fanatical Firebrand, or even land ramp spells create multiple permanent types. Once you've got a few sacrifices and combat triggers in, Korvold's size compounds rapidly—you're drawing cards, growing bigger, and fueling more sacrifice opportunities. Win by bashing face with an oversized hasted flyer that your opponents can't afford to block.
