Gameplay
Creature — Snake Spirit Avatar
Deathtouch
Whenever another creature you control dies, you gain life equal to its toughness.
Whenever you gain life, each opponent loses 1 life.
Snake-Eyes's gift takes others back to their worst memory. To the weak, it is a curse; to the wise, a second chance.
