Legendary Creature — Insect Shaman
Flying Whenever a player sacrifices another permanent, put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control.
“Sacrifice outlet that pumps your team with every permanent death.”
Mazirek turns your sacrifice outlet into a team-wide pumping engine. Every time any player sacrifices a permanent—whether it's your tokens, your opponent's creatures, or even lands—Mazirek gives all your creatures +1/+1 counters. This turns a grindy sacrifice shell into an explosive advantage engine where you're growing a wide board while controlling the game through attrition.
The deck plays creature tokens and sacrifice outlets to repeatedly trigger Mazirek, building counters faster than opponents can answer. You're generating value from cards like Zulaport Cutthroat or Viscera Seer while simultaneously making your team bigger, then attacking for huge damage or grinding out opponents via life drain. It's a midrange aristocrats deck that rewards you for playing the game you'd be playing anyway—sacrificing stuff for value.
Win by swinging in with an oversized token army amped by dozens of counters, or close out via drain effects stacked with sacrifice triggers. The deck is self-sufficient enough to pressure opponents early while scaling into a late-game threat that's hard to race.

Start with Bitterblossom and Young Wolf instead of pricey token generators; use Cartel Aristocrat over Viscera Seer as a budget sacrifice outlet.
