Gameplay

Summon Legend

Cannot be the target of spells or effects. World Champion has power and toughness equal to the life total of target opponent. {0}: Discard your hand to search your library for 1996 World Champion and reveal it to all players. Shuffle your library and put 1996 World Champion on top of it. Use this ability only at the beginning of your upkeep, and only if 1996 World Champion is in your library.

It takes great sacrifice to make it to the top.
