Need a card much like this but that gets you another copy of the sacrificed creature. Maybe for 1(U/G)?

So basically you can summon a second Phyrexian Dreadnought and sac one of them to feed the other one?

This is a true sleeper card. Why doesn't it see insane amounts of play?

1) Works great with Undying (ex. Relentless Skaabs Flayer of the Hatebound)

2) 'Saves' any creature in combat by 'flickering' the creature with a copy.

3) Fills your graveyard for Dredge and Threshold (ex. Life from the LoamNecroplsam Cephalid Coliseum Bloodghast

4) Fuels 'comes into play' effect creatures at Instant speed. Trinket Mage

5) Shuffles your library

6) Works well in an Abyssal Persecutor if you choose to not find his copy (assuming the opponent is dead)

7) Can be imprinted on Isochron Scepter

8) Synergizes with enchantments that abuse ETB effects, especially with Undying: Warstorm Surge

Yet another commander staple. Wait...

A relatively confusing rule is that you can't use this to copy the creature that you sacrifice, even if you sac an undying/persist creature. The creature comes back before this resolves, but since you have to chose the target when you put this on the stack, the creature you sacced isn't a legal target.

This card's main drawback is that you absolutely must have 2 creatures on the field when you cast it. No way around that (not even flashing a creature into play). That said, since this is an instant, one of those creatures could be about to die (say to doom blade or evoke). Just hope your opponent doesnt have a kill spell ready for your other creature.

Or... cascade into it with Shardless Agent and get a free extra creature.
