Venomous Hierophant

Deathtouch on a 3/3 makes every combat step a bluff you cannot lose: a body that trades up into anything means attackers hesitate and blockers are wasted, so the creature polices a flank while doing something else entirely. That something else is the enter trigger, which drops three cards into your graveyard for free, no life paid and nothing sacrificed to earn it. The stat line is deliberately plain because the design is answering two modest questions at once (does the body hold ground, and does the trigger advance the deck's real plan) rather than shouting either answer. It belongs to a family of black creatures that feed the bin on the way in, but the deathtouch is what keeps it earning after the mill resolves, where a pure enabler would just sit there once its trigger is spent. The three-card mill carries the usual self-mill hazard, of course: you are handing yourself resources you may not be able to use, and you are choosing none of them. That risk is balanced by the payoff structure the card wants around it, the delve, escape, and reanimation shells that would rather have a stocked graveyard than a bigger attacker. Strip away a deck built to weaponize its own bin and the mill is a liability the deathtouch cannot cover; add one and the two halves finally answer each other.
