The expensive deathtouch body drains, gains life and draws on entry and each attack. Reanimation can bypass its heavy colored cost, but a hand full of large targets still needs early creatures and interaction.

How this changes your picks

Rules-derived
Take it when
Trade and interact early while placing a valuable creature in the graveyard, then use reanimation and entry effects to recover a stronger board than the opponent can race.
What to take next
Use Splitskin Doll's discard when another small creature is absent, or Possessed Goat's activation, to place Shroudstomper in the graveyard. Reanimate only after securing enough time for the entry value to matter.
Wrong pick
A hand of reanimation and expensive targets still needs defense and a way to discard. Rite of the Moth adds a finality counter, so a creature that would die is exiled rather than returned to the graveyard.
Mana & splash
Keep the colored sources needed for early spells. A synergy payoff does not automatically justify a splash.

How to read this

Observational, not a causal bonus. Both cards must be in the deck. Drawn means opening hand or normally drawn; each card counts once per game. Game-level approximate intervals do not account for repeated games by the same drafter.

At least 100 games in each of four drawn/not-drawn groups; adjusted for game length and screened by the lower confidence bound. Do not add these points to a card’s win rate.
