Butcher of the Bone Cairn
Bone-Cairn Butcher is a practical inclusion for midrange decks that want token pressure and removal insurance. The creature arrives for {1}{R}{W}{B} and brings Mobilize 2, creating two tapped and attacking 1/1 red Warrior tokens each time it attacks. Those tokens arrive already committed to the attack and force opponents to answer a two-pronged threat or face attrition on their life total. As a Demon with a 4/4 body, it presents a sizable clock while generating expendable attackers to trade up with blockers.
Token synergy is immediate because the attacking tokens you control have deathtouch, converting chump blocks into selective removals and improving combat math for your other creatures. In decks that run sacrifice outlets or anthem effects the Bone-Cairn Butcher scales well; otherwise it functions as a steady source of incremental advantage. The card listed here is Near Mint, English, from the Tarkir Dragonstorm set and fits Uncommon play patterns in both casual and competitive cube environments.
