Meathook Massacre II — Harvest of Souls
Meathook Massacre II is a Legendary Enchantment that reshapes board states and taxes every decision with tangible cost and reward. When it enters, each player sacrifices X creatures, forcing tough calls from opponents and opening lines for graveyard recursion. The design rewards careful sequencing; set X to match your plan and capitalize on the aftershocks.
The card doubles as a tempo engine and a recursion lock. Whenever one of your creatures dies you may pay 3 life to return it under your control with a finality counter on it. Whenever a creature an opponent controls dies they may pay 3 life and if they do not the creature returns under your control with a finality counter. Play this in midrange or control shells that can tolerate life payments and that want persistent board value. It pairs well with sacrifice synergies and effects that make opponents choose between losing life or losing creatures to your control.
