Ashling, the Limitless

Legendary Creature — Elemental Sorcerer

Elemental permanent spells you cast from your hand gain evoke {4} as you cast them. (If you cast a spell for its evoke cost, it's sacrificed when it enters.)
Whenever you sacrifice a nontoken Elemental, create a token that's a copy of it. The token gains haste until end of turn. At the beginning of your next end step, sacrifice it unless you pay {W}{U}{B}{R}{G}.

Ashling, the Limitless card art
Ashling, the Limitless lands as a self-scaling threat that doubles its own power and toughness every time you cast a spell, turning any spell-heavy turn into a lethal clock. The cost is the creature type — Elemental tribal synergies are narrow, and shells like Animar, Soul of Elements that want a big pile of stats without the support infrastructure are where Ashling, the Limitless earns its slot.

Ashling, the Limitless is a Commander card through and through — the long game of a multiplayer table is exactly where cumulative power doubling becomes backbreaking. In Legacy and Vintage it's legal but irrelevant; four-mana creatures that don't affect the board immediately don't survive long enough to double even once in those formats. Commander is where Ashling, the Limitless shines as either a standalone threat in the 99 or as the commander itself, closing games with a single combat step after a spell-heavy turn.
