Cass, Hand of Vengeance card art
Cass, Hand of Vengeance turns every creature death into a damage trigger, which means sacrifice outlets like Goblin Bombardment become win conditions the moment she hits the table. She costs four mana in Rakdos colors, which is the right price for an effect this persistent — Dogmeat, Ever Loyal decks run her at nearly 60% inclusion because she converts junk tokens into a clock without any additional setup.

Commander is where Cass, Hand of Vengeance does her real work — a four-mana enchantment that taxes every death across the table is the kind of effect that compounds fast in a 40-life multiplayer game. Legacy and Vintage technically allow her, but a symmetrical death-trigger enchantment at four mana has no competitive home in either format when the game ends on turn one or two. Oathbreaker is the one non-Commander 60-card-adjacent format where she's legal, and a sacrifice-themed signature spell could make her a reasonable value engine there.
