Grist, Voracious Larva
Grist, Voracious Larva is a compact green legendary creature with deathtouch. It starts as a threatening insect on the battlefield and plays with a built in graveyard mechanism that rewards careful timing. Whenever Grist or another creature enters under your control from the graveyard—or when you cast it from the graveyard—you may pay {G}. If you do, exile Grist and return it to the battlefield transformed under its owner's control.
In play, Grist supports graveyard-centric plans while remaining a dangerous blocker thanks to deathtouch. The transform ability adds a second frontline to your strategy, letting you pivot into a transformed state when the opportunity presents itself. It’s a steady, reliable piece that rewards thoughtful sequencing and resilient board presence.
