Doomgape

Those three hybrid pips are where the design earns its menace: the body lands in mono-black, mono-green, or anything between, a 10/10 trampler any Golgari-leaning deck can cast. The catch is the upkeep clause, and it is a genuine catch rather than an upside dressed as one. Every turn this stays in play, your first upkeep trigger demands a creature off your own board, paying you life equal to that creature's toughness in exchange. That tax reframes the whole card. A 10/10 trampler for seven is a closer that ends games in two swings; the forced sacrifice means you need to keep feeding it or watch it eat itself, since it can sacrifice itself when nothing else remains. It rewards a board that produces fodder faster than the upkeep consumes it: token generators, recursive bodies, anything cheap and replaceable. The lifegain scales with toughness rather than power, nudging you toward wide, durable benches over tall threats. What it really wants is a sacrifice engine where the trigger is an asset rather than a cost, turning a mandatory drawback into a steady stream of value while ten power looms over the table. Built right, the clause that looks like a liability becomes the reason to run it.
