Cutting Through the Crowd
Massacre Girl is a compact engine of attrition that rewards timing and board control. Cast Massacre Girl for {3}{B}{B} and you get a 4/4 legendary Human Assassin with menace and an enter the battlefield trigger that taxes every other creature with a temporary -1/-1. That opening pulse creates space to attack or stabilize; menace makes her harder to block cleanly while opponents try to rebuild a board around the damage she inflicts.
Her follow up effect is where she scales. Whenever a creature dies that same turn, every other creature takes another -1/-1 until end of turn, which can cascade into a board sweep if you sequence removals or combat correctly. In Ravnica decks that lean into sacrifice or targeted removal Massacre Girl converts single kills into boardwide attrition, fitting both control and midrange plans without demanding complicated setup.
