Basking Broodscale
Basking Broodscale sits on the board as a practical early drop for green builds that lean on +1/+1 counters. For {1}{G}, you get a 2/2 Creature — Eldrazi Lizard with Devoid, a colorless frame that plays well with colorless synergies. Its key trick is Adapt 1: pay 1G to place a +1/+1 counter on it, letting the creature grow without introducing color into your plan.
Whenever one or more +1/+1 counters are placed on Basking Broodscale, you may create a 0/1 colorless Eldrazi Spawn creature token. Sacrifice that token to add colorless mana, providing a optional ramp that can fuel additional plays or feed other effects later in the game. The card rewards incremental growth and token generation, aligning with the board development rhythm typical of Modern Horizons 3.
