Legendary Creature — Nightmare Beast

Sultai mutate that stacks creatures into one big trampling threat and returns mutate cards from the graveyard every time it connects.
Read more
Otrimi is a 6/6 trampler that can mutate for {1}{B}{G}{U} onto any non-Human creature you own, giving the stack its body and abilities. Whenever it deals combat damage to a player, you return a creature card with mutate from your graveyard to your hand. That makes removal on the stack less punishing, since every hit rebuilds your hand. The deck is packed with mutate creatures and cheap hosts so the triggers pile up quickly.
In the recorded games, Beast Whisperer and Pollywog Symbiote made each mutate spell draw or loot, and Buried Alive stocked the graveyard for Otrimi to collect. Pouncing Shoreshark mutated onto Slippery Bogle bounced a key opposing creature, and Souvenir Snatcher stole artifacts. Trumpeting Gnarr gave an early host that grew into a real threat. Scute Swarm and Auspicious Starrix sometimes spilled out extra lands and creatures in one turn. The clear weakness was a lack of board wipes and interaction. Wide token boards and strong board control both left it unable to keep up.
