Child of the Volcano (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Near Mint

Emberborn Scout

Child of the Volcano is a straightforward red threat that earns its place in aggressive decks. The 3 mana investment plus one red produces a 3/3 Elemental with trample that pressures life totals and forces blocks you want to trade into. Its triggered end step ability rewards attacks that leave it vulnerable by gaining a +1/+1 counter when you descended this turn, making it a resilient tempo piece that grows through interaction and sacrifices alike.

The card plays cleanly with graveyard synergies and sacrifice engines common to Lost Caverns of Ixalan brews. Use Child of the Volcano as an early attacker or a midgame finisher that benefits from cards that put permanents into your graveyard. Its simple rules text and solid body make it easy to slot into red decks where incremental growth matters and combat math wins games.
