Rot Farm Mortipede

Most graveyard payoffs key off the fill: creatures dying, entering the yard, feeding an outlet. This one watches the exit door instead. The trigger fires when creature cards leave your graveyard, which inverts the usual sacrifice-and-recur loop into a reward for the reanimation half of the transaction. Every Reanimate, every flashback of a creature card, every escape or eternalize, every board-wide return spell hands it +1/+0, menace, and lifelink. The "one or more" clause is the constraint that shapes how you feed it: a mass recursion pulling six creatures back at once still counts as a single event and nets one stack of buffs, so the card prefers a steady drip of departures to one big dump. The 3/4 body is already durable enough to survive combat, and on the turns you were emptying the yard for other reasons it becomes an evasive lifelink clock without asking you to change your plan. That is the quiet appeal: it wants exactly the traffic a recursion deck already generates, and pays you for the direction most yards run empty. It is a role-player for an engine, not a standalone threat. Slot it into a shell built on repeatedly cashing creatures out of the graveyard and the pings of menacing lifelink accumulate into real pressure; strip that traffic away and you are left with a plain black midrange creature.
