Description
Yearling with Attitude
Belligerent Yearling arrives as a compact threat that rewards aggressive sequencing. With a casting cost of {1}{R} and printed as Belligerent Yearling this uncommon Dinosaur makes a steady beatdown piece thanks to trample and a static ability that can pump its base power in response to later drops. Experienced players will slot it on the second turn to pressure life totals or to bait removal while planning a larger Dinosaur follow up.
The card text grants flexibility rather than a fixed buff so the Yearling scales with your board. In limited play it trades well into early creatures and in constructed lists it works as a cheap enabler for damage or reach. There is a small touch of Lost Caverns lore here where quick territorial instincts matter more than size so this Yearling shines when played with an eye for tempo and set up.
