Savra, Queen of the Golgari — Court of Sacrifice
Savra, Queen of the Golgari plays to the Golgari script of death and return. Savra rewards decks that convert bodies into board advantage and life swings; she punishes opponents when you are willing to pay the cost in life and rewards you when you sacrifice green resources. The anime borderless art emphasizes her dual nature with necrotic green motes and courtly poise, which helps communicate how she sits at the center of a sacrifice engine rather than being a one shot finisher.
In play she is straightforward to slot into midrange or aristocrat style builds. Savra, Queen of the Golgari reads as a tool for incremental advantage; sacrifice a black creature to force opponent sacrifices at the expense of life or sacrifice a green creature to stabilize by gaining life. The card trades immediate tempo for persistent asymmetric pressure and fits with token generators, reanimation targets, and repeatable sacrifice outlets.
