Deathless Behemoth

Creature — Eldrazi6 generic mana

A 6/6 body with vigilance is honest work, but the recursion clause is what changes the calculus, and it feeds on the token surplus an Eldrazi shell generates as a byproduct. Sacrifice two Eldrazi Scions and this returns to hand, ready to be cast again, which turns the Scions piling up in that kind of deck into a renewable supply of beaters. Because the ability only works from the graveyard, the card has to die before it can come back: this is not a battlefield trick that dodges removal, it is a refund you collect afterward. The sorcery-speed restriction reinforces that rhythm, asking you to rebuild on your own turn, between threats, rather than fishing it back at instant speed. The effect is an attrition engine rather than a combat piece. Against decks leaning on point removal, the math runs out on their side first: every kill spell they spend gets answered by two Scions and a recast, and those Scions were going to be made anyway. It is a grindy payoff for a strategy that wanted one, asking only that you have the tokens to feed it and the patience to spend a main phase rebuilding instead of developing.
