Character Background

Savra, Queen of the Golgari embodies the swamp’s cruel economy: her power blooms only when bodies hit the earth. In gameplay terms, she’s a value-control engine that converts sacrifice into life swings and board pressure—her black-trigger lets you optionally pay 2 life to make every opponent sacrifice a creature they choose, which is excellent for pruning threats and disrupting midrange boards without committing to a full “mass removal” package. Her green-trigger, gaining 2 life when you sacrifice a green creature, rewards running a sacrifice core heavy on green bodies (think recurring threats, green fodder, and enchantment or token sources) so you can fuel repeated activations and stabilize. Build her deck around consistent sacrifice outlets and recursion (like persist/bounce-to-hand lines or graveyard reanimation), and prioritize creatures you can afford to lose: the more reliably you can sacrifice, the more often you can choose between tempo-like removal pressure or pure longevity.
