Character Background
Chainsaw is a brutal little piece of kit that best supports an aggressive‑tempo or sacrificial value plan: it comes down for {1}{R}, immediately answers a one‑toughness blocker with up to 3 damage, and then passively accrues rev counters whenever creatures die so the equipped creature grows its raw power. Practically, think of it as removal-plus‑scaling pump that rewards token generators and sacrifice engines — Goblin Bombardment or Krenko decks can flood the yard and feed counters quickly, while Rakdos aristocrat shells can turn every casualty into a bigger attacker. Deckbuilding tip: include cheap token producers and at least one resilient evasion or trample threat to benefit from the +X/+0 swing (the buff is only to power, so prioritize creatures that can push damage through or survive trades). Because Equip {3} is nontrivial, you often want to accumulate rev counters on board before committing it, or pair it with ways to cheat equipment onto attackers to maximize lethal damage.
