Chittering Witch — Ratcaller of Tarkir
Chittering Witch is a compact value engine from Commander Tarkir that rewards board presence and political play. The 2 2 body and a {3}{B} casting cost make it an easy inclusion in attrition focused builds. When Chittering Witch enters, you generate a swarm of 1 1 black Rat creature tokens equal to the number of opponents you have, turning opponents into resources and enabling sac outlets, chump blocks, and token synergies right away.
The activated ability for {1}{B} plus sacrificing a creature gives removal and tempo in one slot. Use it to shrink a key blocker, clear the way for a finisher, or fuel graveyard recursion. In multiplayer Commander games this card scales naturally; its token generation and sacrifice outlet combine well with sacrifice themes, aristocrat shells, and cards that benefit from creature deaths. Condition Near Mint and English language printing from the Commander Tarkir Dragonstorm set make this an attractive pickup for competitive casual and thematic decks alike.
