Vren, the Relentless

Legendary Creature — Rat Rogue

Ward (Whenever this creature becomes the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls, counter it unless that player pays .)

If a creature an opponent controls would die, exile it instead.

At the beginning of each end step, create X 1/1 black Rat creature tokens with "This creature gets +1/+1 for each other Rat you control," where X is the number of creatures your opponents controlled that were exiled this turn.

BlueTorche on It's so sad that Steve Jobs died of Vren Poisoning

I just thought again of your deck and your commander.

I remembered an old card I have : Ogre Slumlord. It is a similar card as Vren, the Relentless, so it can be a good synergy.

You may also add some cards that say "Each player sacrifice a creature", as you will much likely sacrifice a rat to create 3 of them. Here are some of them you don't have : Accursed Marauder, Barter in Blood, Demon's Disciple, Innocent Blood... As a similar idea, Death Cloud may be a win condition if you manage to cast it for X=7+, destroy all the land and kill all the board except for Vren.

Last_Laugh on Your favourite Card from Bloomburrow

I feel like Vren, the Relentless is super underappreciated. It's an engine and payoff in one card and those tokens can win games on their own.

Last_Laugh on How Many Rat Colony Is …

Caerwyn thanks for chiming in! That card is almost singlehandedly why I'm asking this question. I actually traded for one recently, added it, and saw it twice... but 20 rat colony seems just slightly too low to reliably trigger it.

I only hit 2 rat colony in I'm guessing 8 triggers (which to be fair is a super low sample size) and I ended up cutting it (at least temporarily) for Vren, the Relentless and Persistent Marshstalker out of Bloomburrow. I've also been cutting a lot of similar effects (Winota from Isshin, Azorius Boromir from Eowyn, etc.) from other decks because I'm constantly burying needed interaction on the bottom of my library.
