Admiral Brass, Unsinkable
$0.27
Legendary Creature — Human Pirate

Grixis pirates that mill themselves, then reanimate a hasty 4/4 pirate every combat to keep up steady aggressive pressure.

When Admiral Brass enters, you mill four cards. At the beginning of combat on your turn, you may return target Pirate creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield with a finality counter. It becomes a base 4/4 and gains haste that turn, and if it would die it gets exiled instead. So every turn brings back one more attacker. The deck runs a pirate creature base, self-mill and discard to stock the graveyard, plus treasure payoffs.
In the recorded games, the pirate army attacked every turn and rebuilt after removal. Shared Animosity made group attacks hit hard, and Coercive Recruiter stole a blocker each time a pirate entered. Vaan, Street Thief turned combat damage into treasure or free spells from opponents' libraries, Storm Fleet Negotiator drew cards on attack, and Reckless Fireweaver pinged the table off treasure. Siren Stormtamer protected key pieces. Timestream Navigator added extra turns in some games. Opponents focused on Brass to stop the engine, and slower decks with bigger boards could outgrow the 4/4s.
