Grim Toll of the Lost Caverns
Abyssal Gorestalker is a straightforward threat for mid to late game black decks. The card name signals what it does on entry. For {4}{B}{B} you get a 6/6 Horror that immediately punishes board development by forcing each player to sacrifice two creatures when it enters the battlefield. That trigger clears small tokens, taxes tribal boards, and changes attack math in one clean resolution.
Play it when your board composition benefits from selective removals or when an opponent relies on token engines. The creature stat line makes it a reliable beatstick once the sacrifice resolves. In Lost Caverns of Ixalan flavor this creature embodies cavernous hunger that breaks alliances and leaves only the strongest bodies standing. Treat it as both a sweeper against low-value creatures and a solid finisher against slower decks.
