Bedhead Beastie — Grimy Wakeup Call
Bedhead Beastie from Duskmourn: House of Horror is a compact common that pulls its weight in tight midrange and sacrifice builds. The card reads like a pragmatic inclusion for decks that need early board presence and a consistent body to trade with removal. In practice you drop the Beastie, it sticks, and it turns the clock on opponents who rely on small creatures or aggressive starts.
The Beastie fits into black lists that value incremental advantage and flexible interaction. It plays well with spot removal and graveyard synergies while offering a straightforward clock as a 2 2 attacker. Flavor ties it to Duskmourns restless rooms where even the smallest creature smells of old nightmares, a useful bit of lore that helps the card feel at home in decks that lean into the set theme.
