Pizza Face, Gastromancer

Pizza Face is a unique engine that rewards you for flickering, sacrificing, or otherwise bouncing permanents you control. Every time something leaves the battlefield under your control, you get to pump up a creature or turn an artifact into a threat with three +1/+1 counters. This creates a snowball effect where your board grows exponentially, especially if you're running cards that blink or sacrifice your own stuff repeatedly. The Food token it creates on entry also gives you incidental life gain and sacrifice fodder, making Pizza Face surprisingly resilient.

Your gameplan revolves around chaining temporary effects—blink effects like Soulherder or Ephemerate trigger the Disappear ability multiple times per turn, turning each activation into a counter engine. You can also lean into sacrifice synergies with cards like Viscera Seer or Zulaport Cutthroat, which double down on the "leave the battlefield" trigger while building your board. Between the life gain from Food tokens and the growing creature threats, you'll naturally accrue advantages until you can swing for lethal damage or lock opponents out with a huge creature and repeated flicker loops.
