Rot-Curse Rakshasa — Decay with Purpose
Rot-Curse Rakshasa plays like a compact engine for attrition. Rot-Curse Rakshasa is a 5 5 Demon for {1}{B} that comes with trample and the decayed keyword. On the battlefield it forces difficult blocks and dents life totals quickly while its decayed clause limits long term blocking value. An experienced piloting choice when you want a resilient threat that still hoses chump lines and pushes damage through.
The Renew ability gives this mythic card a second act from the graveyard. Pay {X}{B}{B} and exile Rot-Curse Rakshasa to distribute decayed counters among X target creatures as a sorcery. That interaction turns one body into a board modifier, clearing defenders or shutting down ground-based plans. Use it in creature decks that value recursion or in discard and sacrifice shells where graveyard economy matters. Pick this medium play copy to bolster a Tarkir Dragonstorm era black deck that leans into attrition and graveyard value.
