Sephiroth, Planet's Heir
$0.41
Legendary Creature — Human Avatar Soldier

Dimir control that shrinks opposing creatures by -2/-2 on entry, then grows Sephiroth with every opposing creature that dies.
Read more
When Sephiroth enters, creatures your opponents control get -2/-2 until end of turn. That wipes out tokens and mana dorks and leaves bigger creatures easy to finish off. Each opposing creature that dies after that puts a +1/+1 counter on him, and vigilance lets him attack and still block. The deck pairs him with removal and flicker or clone effects that reuse the entry trigger.
In the recorded games, Sephiroth played as a control deck that cleared small creatures and slowly turned into a large threat that needed an answer. Flash creatures and Demonic Tutor helped it react on other players' turns. Some versions leaned on flicker and clones for card advantage, while others stole and sacrificed opposing creatures. The flicker builds kept drawing cards but could not keep up with a faster combo board.
