Activate Mossbridge Troll's ability, sacrifice it to Jarad's second ability, and win the game. Then wonder why you didn't win earlier because you had enough stuff to pump Mossbridge Troll.

How has noone mentioned Phyrexian Devourer? It's sac trigger can only be on the stack once, as mentioned in its rules section, so in response to this trigger you can activate its ability as many times as needed then sac it to Jarad. THAT'S how you win EDH.

You can practically cast him straight from the graveyard. Just tap and sac.
Then dredge Life from the Loam and brush your shoulder off.

Exquisite Blood with Sanguine Bond. Mindcrank. Jesus. I think I just had a feargasm. Don't even try to deny it. YOU ALREADY HAVE A COMMANDER DECK DESIGNED FOR HIM.

Even his first ability makes him good: for 2 
instead of 
, he's a +2/+1 Lhurgoyf with very relevant tribes. His second ability feeds himself and hurts an opponent at the same time. And his third makes it hard for him to stay off the battlefield. Elves frequently don't mind lands hitting the grave, so it's definitely a neat possibility for elf tribal EDH. I can see a few games ending suddenly on a sacrificed Heedless One or Jagged-Scar Archers.

Worth consideration: His second ability says EACH opponent. I'm building an EDH deck for him now that I have him. The gameplan is to pump a creature to about 40 power, then sac it and knock out the table.
It's a nice theory, and with some work I might be able to get it running consistent.

I really like this guy.
He's powerful, but not broken, and full of fun synergy. One can tell he was designed with Commander in mind given the interesting mix of abilities. I hope to see more legends like this all through the Guilds in Return to Ravnica block - it'll be a nice way to really add more leaders to Commander.
