Blacksnag Buzzard is a compact flying threat that rewards timing and board read. A 2/1 flyer for {2}{B} that often arrives with a +1/+1 counter if a creature died this turn, it fits cleanly into sacrifice shells and midrange decks that trade creatures early. The body trades favorably when it gains the counter and its flying keyword lets it pressure planeswalkers and chump blockers in the air.
Play reads like a small puzzle piece rather than a headline play. Use it after a trade or sacrifice to get value from the graveyard action and consider its Plot ability as a way to schedule surprise pressure without paying mana later. This Near Mint English printing from Outlaws of Thunder Junction is ideal for players who want a reliable common that slots into draft builds and focused black aggro lists.
