Drover Grizzly — Saddle Up For Trample
Drover Grizzly is a straightforward tempo piece that rewards forward pressure. As a 4/2 creature for {2}{G} it asks little of your board to start cratering through defenses. The real leverage comes when the Mount is saddled; attacking with Drover Grizzly hands trample to your entire team until end of turn. Play it as an early threat or a late game finisher, depending on whether you prefer to push damage over blockers or force unfavorable blocks.
The Saddle 1 mechanic changes how you evaluate your other creatures. Tap creatures with combined power of one or more to saddle the Mount and turn blocking math against your opponent. In Outlaws of Thunder Junction lore this grizzly is bred to carry raiders and wreck the line. Use it in creature heavy builds where incremental damage and combat tricks convert board presence into lethal reach.
