Void Beckoner

Most cyclers with a discard trigger hand you a small parting gift on the way to the graveyard: a point of damage, a token, a scry. This one grafts a deathtouch counter onto a creature you control, so the spent to pitch the 8/8 also buys a permanent combat threat somewhere else on the board. The value lives in where that counter lands. Drop it on a small, unassuming body (a mana dork, a chump blocker, anything whose one power was never going to trade up in a fight), and now that creature eats whatever it touches, and opponents have to respect a 1/1 the way they would a genuine blocker. Deathtouch does little for a creature already big enough to win combat on toughness alone; it does everything for one that could not. The ability lifts the keyword off the eight-drop that already carries it and relocates it onto a body that needs it. Hardcast the 8/8 and you get a top-end finisher that punishes anything that blocks it, killing the blocker while its own bulk usually survives. Cycle it and you skip the eight mana entirely to weaponize a cheaper creature for a fraction of the cost. Neither line reads as a mistake, which is the point of hiding a counter behind a discard that already replaces itself.
