Frilled Cave-Wurm (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Light Play Foil

Sink the Graveyard, Sea the Gain

Frilled Cave-Wurm is a compact late game threat that rewards deckbuilding that fills the graveyard. With a casting cost of {3}{U} and a base body of 2/5, the card holds the line while offering a situational power boost once your yard hits critical mass. The Descend clause scales simply and reliably. In practice the creature sits well in control shells and mill focused decks where permanents end up in the graveyard on purpose or by attrition.

The Lost Caverns of Ixalan version presents the wurm with foil treatment and light play condition that appeals to players who want a playable copy that still shows some tabletop history. Frilled Cave-Wurm plays a clear role in tempo by absorbing early pressure and trade for value later when its bonus applies. Expect it to be a predictable piece of any strategy that manipulates graveyards or leans on endurance over raw speed.
