Rats of the Phyrexian Plague
Meet the Blightbelly Rat, a cunning addition to your Phyrexian arsenal. For just {1}{B}, this versatile creature doesn’t just scuttle across the battlefield; it brings a deadly toxin with it. With its Toxic 1 ability, any combat damage dealt by Blightbelly Rat grants your opponent a poison counter, inching them closer to defeat. But the real magic happens when this rat meets its end. When Blightbelly Rat dies, it triggers a powerful proliferate effect, allowing you to spread your counters like wildfire across all permanents and players. Imagine combining it with cards like Infectious Inquiry or Fynn, the Fangbearer to maximize your poison strategy!
Strategically deploying the Blightbelly Rat will keep your opponents on their toes. It is not just a simple creature; it’s a tactical weapon in your control arsenal. A 2/2 body is perfect for early game pressure, while its abilities ensure it leaves a lasting impact even in death. Add this foil gem to your collection for a touch of Phyrexian flair and enhance your gameplay with its unique capabilities.
