chi yu pokemon card Chi-Yu Ex #035 – Shiny Treasure ex (SV4A) Japanese Card Number / Rarity Chi-yu Ex Special Illustration |

Rare cards are hard to find, and owners are reluctant to sell

For starters, theres no black or green in the casting cost, which is unusual for a graveyard strategy, but thats they also cant be damaged, which is nice

See Swarmyard

This means that, given the kind of mana you will need to cast him, there is every chance you could cast a cheap spell before combat on your next turn to trigger the additional four +1/+1 counters, then activate his mana ability to double that to eight and have him be a 13/13

I've excluded cards like Blightsteel Colossus or Progenitus that cant stay in the graveyard due to replacement effects, even though there are tricks that let you reanimate these creatures
