Aloe Alchemist: Plot the Potion Aloe Alchemist is a compact threat that rewards timing and position. As a {1}{G} three two with trample it hits the ground running and forces awkward blocks or extra life loss. Its plotted trigger turns a single push into a swingy combat trick by granting a target creature plus three plus two and trample until end of turn. Use it to turn an attacker into an overrun finisher or to punch through a blocker that would otherwise stall your plan.
The plot mechanic gives the card a second life off the battlefield. Paying one green to exile it from your hand sets up a surprise later that costs no mana on resolution. In practice you can sequence attacks, bait removal, and then resolve the plotted Aloe Alchemist to convert a tempo advantage into card value. The card reads like a toolbox piece for creature decks that favor combat math and reactive plays rather than raw card advantage.
