Dreamtide Whale
Dreamtide Whale is a blue mana cost creature from Modern Horizons 3 that clocked in as a 7/5. It arrives with Vanishing 2, entering the battlefield with two time counters. On each upkeep you remove a time counter, and when the last is removed you sacrifice it. While it lingers, the Whale is a steady threat that grows more efficient as the game unfolds, especially when you leverage proliferate triggers tied to your spell count.
Its secondary ability triggers whenever a player casts their second spell each turn, adding proliferate to the board. Proliferate can raise counters on your permanents and even push a few extra loyalty counters on planeswalkers, or extend the life of Dreamtide Whale itself by adding more time counters. The card rewards careful sequencing of cheap blue spells and board development, creating incremental value that scales with the game tempo.
