Kjeldoran War Cry

The self-referential count is the joke here: a team pump that scales by how many copies of itself have died, which means the second cast is bigger than the first, and the third bigger still. It is a design that pays you back for redundancy in the most literal way, turning the played-and-buried copies in any graveyard into the multiplier. In practice the math rarely matters, because a +1/+1 to your whole board for two mana at instant speed is already a serviceable rate, and the bonus from extra copies is gravy you almost never get to taste. What it really is, is an Overrun-adjacent anthem trick built for a go-wide white deck that wants to push damage in a single combat step, dressed up with a graveyard-counting rider that flatters the build-arounds more than it serves them. The era was full of these gently combo-curious commons and uncommons that asked you to notice an interaction nobody was going to assemble, and this one asks you to flood multiple copies into multiple graveyards before the scaling becomes anything but theoretical. Read flatly, it is a token deck's reach. Read generously, it is a quiet invitation to mill yourself, but the card never quite earns the second reading.
