Character Background

Hei Bai, Spirit of Balance feels like a canonical Orzhov midrange/sacrifice piece: a 3/3 that wants you to sacrifice another creature or artifact on entry or attack to gain two +1/+1 counters, and when it dies it transfers those counters to another creature. That design pushes an "aristocrats"/value-aggro plan — use chump creatures, token makers, or cheap artifacts as fuel to pump Hei Bai for favorable trades and incremental clock on attacking, then cascade the growth to a resilient finisher when it’s removed. Specific synergies include cheap sacrifice outlets like Viscera Seer or Altar of Dementia, and sacrifice payoffs such as Blood Artist or Zulaport Cutthroat; Lingering Souls or token producers give repeatable fodder. Deckbuilding tip: pack a suite of 0–2 mana bodies and at least one permanent sac outlet, plus a target creature that wants counters (a lifelinker or deathtouch lategame threat) so Hei Bai converts tempo into lasting value.
