Rip and Rend Chainsaw
Chainsaw from Duskmourn House of Horror is a compact artifact that reads like a playtester note turned lethal. As an experienced Magic player you will appreciate its straightforward template and tactical fit in aggressive and sacrifice shells. Chainsaw rewards timing more than toolboxing; equip it to a creature, push through damage while the on hit trigger creates value, and then convert that tempo into board advantage or card selection depending on your build.
The card pairs well with creatures that want to attack early and often and with decks that leverage sacrifice or graveyard synergies. The flavor sits comfortably in Duskmourns twisted corridors where crude implements carry grudges. Use Chainsaw to close races, force unfavorable blocks, or profit from repeated hits when you need incremental advantage over the long game.
