Balustrade Wurm — Roofbreaking Spine
Balustrade Wurm (Showcase) is a straightforward finisher that reads well in midrange and ramp shells. The card plays like a solid six drop that pressures life totals and clears blocker lines with trample. In limited play the wurm closes out games quickly and in constructed builds it finds work as a resilient threat to anchor board states the turn it arrives.
Lore wise the Balustrade Wurm is tied to Duskmourn halls where gargantuan vertebrae prop the balustrades and late night duels attract predators. Use it where you need a reliable clock and pressure on opposing planeswalkers. Experienced players will note it pairs cleanly with token generators and pump effects that amplify its impact on combat while remaining functional on an empty board.
