This value can come from more novel sources, though: haste or flash allow you to use your creature in combat before it dies, Consecrated Sphinx doesnt have any abilities when it enters or leaves play, but draws you two cards on your opponents draw step, before it can be Vindicated, and creatures with board-affecting static abilities like Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite sometimes only need to be in play for an instant for their impact to be felt
Scourge of the UndercityScourge of the Undercity is a solid low curve Gorgon with some life gain upside
In Sultai colors with Green ramp, this is not a big deal to hit, and you draw a card for each thing destroyed to refill your hand like Decree of Pain
For those of you who are unaware, Machinehead essentially took the best red and black cards and piled them into a sixty card list
Captain Storm, Cosmium Raider shares the bounty with its crew, proving how fair pirates can be
Id say most Commander players would find that sort of play distasteful and will generally save LD for specific threats like Gaeas Cradle, Maze of Ith, and Cabal Coffers, but be aware that your mileage may vary depending on where you play
