Bloodletter in the Rift

Bloodletter of Aclazotz is a compact threat for mono black decks that want to convert tempo into raw life loss. Casting Bloodletter of Aclazotz for {1}{B}{B}{B} drops a 2/4 Flying body onto the battlefield that dodges most ground blockers and pressures planeswalkers. The printed ability reads as a multiplier on damage from your turn so timing and attack sequencing matter more than raw power totals.
In Lost Caverns of Ixalan play the card as an offensive engine rather than a stall piece. Its interaction with life loss turns spot removal and combat tricks into avenues for intense payoff. The creature fits into aggressive and midrange black shells where doubling an opponent life loss amplifies candles that would otherwise flicker out. The flavor ties into the cavern lore since the vampire demon seems built to hunt from above and feed on the wounds of explorers.
