Sazh Katzroy

Sazh Katzroy is a counter-doubling engine that rewards you for turning creatures sideways. His enter trigger ramps you into Birds or lands, smoothing your mana early, while his attack trigger turns any creature into a growing threat by doubling its counters. The gameplan is to land Sazh, ramp into your deck, then use him to amplify your best creatures—especially those that already accumulate counters naturally (from proliferate, +1/+1 synergies, or other sources). Once you're doubling counters every combat, your threats spiral out of control quickly.

You'll want a mix of creatures that either enter with counters (like Ozolith creatures), benefit from doubling (Hydras, Lhurgoyfs), or synergize with +1/+1 counters in general. Green's ramp and card draw keep the engine humming, while cards that proliferate or add multiple counters at once multiply Sazh's doubling value. The win is straightforward: grow one or two creatures to lethal size and attack.
