Grip the Tide
The Grappling Kraken from Foundations rewards careful sequencing and land drops. Grappling Kraken is a 5 6 blue creature that taxes attackers and removes blockers the moment your terrain changes, thanks to its Landfall ability. In Near Mint condition and printed in English, this uncommon Kraken fits into tempo builds and control shells where a steady stream of lands turns into repeated removal and battlefield control.
Play it on turn five to present a large body while turning your next land into interaction. Whenever a land you control enters, you can tap a target creature an opponent controls and put a stun counter on it which interferes with its next untap step. The card reads cleanly on the table and pairs well with fetch lands, ramp spells, and bounce effects to force unfavorable trades or protect your win conditions. Add this Foundations piece to your collection or deck for reliable table presence and a pragmatic answer to aggressive creature strategies.
