Legendary Creature — Human Warrior

Gruul fight club that draws cards off fights and forced blocks, doubling an attacker's power to push through big damage.
Read more
Neyith draws you a card whenever one or more of your creatures fight or become blocked. At the beginning of combat on your turn, you can pay {2}{R/G} to double a creature's power, and that creature must be blocked if able. That forced block also triggers the draw, so the ability is both a pump and a card. Decks play fight spells as removal, large creatures that win those fights, and ramp to afford the activation every turn.
In the recorded games, Neyith usually played as aggressive midrange. Fight cards like Arni Slays the Troll removed blockers and drew cards, and Domri, Anarch of Bolas added more fights. Questing Beast paired well with the forced block, since its damage can't be prevented. Several lists also carried a combo, using Goblin Recruiter to find Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker. Opponents had to think carefully about blocks, and the deck kept its hand full through combat. Its weak points were losing key creatures in fights that went wrong, and artifact removal like Vandalblast against builds leaning on rocks.
