Conduit Goblin: Energy in Motion
Conduit Goblin enters the battlefield as a 2/2 Goblin Warrior. When it arrives, you gain 2 energy counters, contributing a small yet meaningful boost to your tempo in the early turns. The setup invites careful sequencing, balancing on the knife edge between aggression and resource management in Modern Horizons 3.
At the beginning of combat on your turn, you may pay RR. If you do, another target creature you control gets +1/+0 and gains haste until end of turn. This allows a timely alpha strike or snappy combat tricks, especially when the board state is tight. The foil treatment enhances the crackling energy motif visible in the image, reflecting the set’s chaotic goblin flavor and practical playstyle. The flavor text about Smurt facing a lightning storm adds a little lore to the card, giving it a memorable spark during matches.
