3G, Sacrifice this creature: Return all land cards from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped.
Mox strategy
Aftermath Analyst is a strong graveyard engine and ramp/recovery tool, especially in land-centric decks. Its best use is turning self-mill into explosive mana or resetting after a board wipe by bringing back every land tapped. The entry mill 3 helps stock the graveyard early, and the 1/3 body is a decent blocker that buys time.
It gets much better with fetch lands, self-mill, and sacrifice/discard outlets, since those fill the graveyard faster and increase the number of lands you can return. Strong synergies include Crucible-style land recursion, Life from the Loam, Splendid Reclamation effects, and any deck that wants lands in the graveyard anyway. It enables big turns, recovery from disruption, and combo-style land loops.
Best in Commander and slower constructed shells that can reliably load the graveyard; weaker in decks without enough lands or self-mill to justify the activation cost.
