Keranos, God of Storms
Of the gods in that pantheon, this is the one that demands nothing of its controller and pays out regardless. Where the rest tie devotion to attacking creatures or activated abilities, Keranos converts a single revealed card on each of your turns into either a free draw or three damage to any target, and it does so as an indestructible enchantment that most removal cannot touch. The animation clause is almost beside the point: you rarely need the 6/5 body to come online, because the value engine is the win condition. A land reveal refills your hand; a nonland reveal burns a face or clears a blocker. The card does not care which, and neither do you, because every draw step becomes a coin flip where both faces are good. That symmetry is the design's whole trick. Most card-advantage engines ask you to commit resources and protect them; this one is parasitic on a thing you were going to do anyway (drawing for turn), and the trigger costs nothing, so it can only be answered by enchantment removal or by racing it. The result is a control finisher that grinds without ever tapping out, throws three damage in answer to nothing, and forces opponents to find a narrow class of answer or lose to the accumulation. It is the rare top-end whose floor (a recurring cantrip-and-Lightning-Bolt split, paid for with nothing but your normal draw) is already worth the slot before the body ever matters.
