Legendary Creature — Elemental Cat
Ward—Sacrifice a Food. Other creatures are Food artifacts in addition to their other types and have "{2}, {T}, Sacrifice this permanent: You gain 3 life." Whenever a Food is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, put two +1/+1 counters on Ygra.
“Sacrifice-fueled cat that grows while turning your board into infinite value.”
Ygra, Eater of All turns your entire board into a resource engine. Your creatures become Food artifacts that can be sacrificed for life gain, while Ygra grows massive every time any Food hits the graveyard. The core gameplan is to build a creature-heavy deck that naturally generates sacrifice triggers—either through your own intentional sacrifices or through board wipes and combat deaths. You're looking to turn incremental life gain into inevitability while Ygra becomes a 20+ power threat.
The deck thrives on creatures with enter-the-battlefield effects or sacrifice outlets. Cards like Zulaport Cutthroat, Viscera Seer, and Ashnod's Altar let you sacrifice your own creatures on your terms, triggering Ygra repeatedly. You're also encouraged to run actual Food tokens and Food generators (like Witch's Oven or Cauldron Familiar) to maximize both the sacrifice triggers and the life gain. Your deck wants to be midrange-y: deploy creatures, create fodder, feed Ygra, and eventually swing with a massive commander or go infinite with sacrifice outlets.

Skip expensive tutors like Vampiric Tutor; use Diabolic Intent or Entomb instead. Replace Ashnod's Altar with Viscera Seer or Cartel Aristocrat for sac outlets on a budget.
