Trample
When Carnage enters, return target creature card with mana value 3 or less from your graveyard to the battlefield. It gains "This creature attacks each combat if able" and "When this creature deals combat damage to a player, sacrifice it."

Carnage, Crimson Chaos is a solid midrange-aggro reanimator threat: a 4/3 trampler for 4 that immediately rebuys a cheap creature from your graveyard and turns it into a forced-attacker, likely one-shot pressure piece.
Its best use is in Rakdos decks that want recurring value from small creatures with ETB effects, death triggers, or haste-like pressure. The reanimated creature can generate immediate tempo even if it dies after connecting once.
Strong synergies include creatures with strong enter-the-battlefield value, sacrifice fodder, and cards that let you reuse the returned creature before it dies. Since the reanimated target must attack each combat, it pairs well with damage-based payoff cards and sacrifice outlets that let you cash it in on your terms.
Mayhem BR adds flexibility by letting you cast it from the graveyard after discarding, which supports grindy discard, loot, and self-mill strategies.
Overall: good in Rakdos graveyard-tempo shells, especially where cheap utility creatures and combat damage payoffs are already part of the plan.
