Warteye Witch

Creature — Goblin Shaman2 generic manaBlack mana

A death-triggered smoothing engine dressed up as a beater. The scry attaches to any creature you control leaving for the graveyard, itself included, which means the card converts the fodder economy of a sacrifice deck into card selection: each token that dies, each creature chumped or traded away, digs one card deeper or buries a dead draw. That reframes what dying is worth. In a shell built to lose creatures on purpose, the scry accrues into a slow filtering ratchet that costs no cards and no mana to run, only bodies you were spending anyway. The 3/2 is a fair aggressive rate that trades willingly, and trading feeds its own trigger, so removal aimed at it still pays a scry on the way out. This belongs to the family of aristocrats support that turns death into a resource, but where most of that group drains life or draws cards outright, this one deals in information: cheaper to attach, easier to justify at common-rarity effort, and quietly relentless when the graveyard fills fast. It is not the payoff a sacrifice deck is built around; it is the connective tissue that makes the payoffs more consistent, smoothing toward the enabler or the finisher one look at a time.
