Emerald Regent of the Rot
Aatchik, Emerald Radian is a Legendary Creature that rewards graveyard investment and insect synergy. When Aatchik enters the battlefield you get a swarm equal to the number of artifact and creature cards in your graveyard in the form of 1/1 green Insect tokens. That effect scales cleanly with self mill, sacrifice engines and artifact recursion and gives you immediate board presence without overcommitting mana.
Beyond the etb value Aatchik grows with your losses and fuels incremental damage. Whenever another Insect you control dies you put a +1/+1 counter on Aatchik and each opponent loses 1 life. That makes Aatchik a natural finisher in sacrifice builds or token decks that trade broadly. Use it as a midrange anchor in Aetherdrift decks that want resilient threats, graveyard density and steady life loss to close games.
