Enchantment
When Octo Opus enters, create a 4/4 blue Octopus Performer creature token named Contortionist with "At the beginning of your upkeep, you may fold this token in half." (It becomes 2/2, then 1/1, ½/½, and so on.)
Sacrifice Octo Opus: Draw a card and an additional card for each of Contortionist's folds.

Rulings
  • 2022-10-07 Creatures in Un- games with power between 0 and 1 still deal damage equal to their power, and players can have fractional life totals. For example, if a ½/½ creature deals combat damage to a player with 10 life, the player will go to 9 ½ life.
  • 2022-10-07 If Contortionist is no longer on the battlefield, you may still sacrifice Octo Opus to draw a card.
  • 2022-10-07 If an effect instructs you to do something based on Contortionist's power or toughness that can only be done in whole numbers, such as draw cards, and Contortionist's power or toughness isn't a whole number, ignore that instruction. You can't draw half a card, mill a quarter of a card, etc.
  • 2022-10-07 If you control more than one creature named Contortionist as the last ability resolves, perhaps because you created a copy of the token or created more than one to begin with, choose one of them and use its number of folds to determine how many cards to draw.
  • 2022-10-07 If you're not using a printed token or another Magic card to represent the token, you can't fold it in half. Its power, toughness, and the number of folds it has (zero) remains the same.
  • 2022-10-07 Sacrificing Octo Opus has no effect on Contortionist. It will still have the ability to fold in half at the beginning of your upkeep, but doing so is optional.
  • 2022-10-07 To represent the token, you have three choices: (1) Use the printed token included in some Unfinity booster packs, (2) use another printed Magic card or token as a substitute, or (3) use anything else, read the next ruling, and be slightly sad.
