Blood Hustler, Night Market Enforcer
Blood Hustler is a compact, efficient threat that rewards an active crime plan. At {1}{B} and printed as a 1/1, it grows each time you commit a crime, gaining a +1/+1 counter once per turn. That steady incremental growth makes it a reliable early play that pressures life totals while currency flows through graveyards and opposing boards.
The activated ability for three and a black lets you convert board presence into incremental life swing. Use it to close out races or to stabilize against aggressive decks. In-game this card fits well in decks that push narrow, repeatable interactions and that can manufacture crimes through targeting and discard. As a Near Mint Foil from Outlaws of Thunder Junction, it also holds appeal for players who value both playability and thematic flavor tied to the set.
