Raptor Ramp
Hulking Raptor from The Lost Caverns of Ixalan is a straightforward green threat that pushes board development on an early turn. Hulking Raptor costs {2}{G}{G} and enters as a 5 3 Dinosaur with Ward {2}. It survives a single targeted removal or a burn spell long enough to contribute damage and board presence while demanding an answer from your opponent.
Its trigger at the beginning of your precombat main phase adds {G}{G}, smoothing your curve and enabling follow up plays or green ramp tricks. As a near mint foil borderless print this card works well in creature heavy builds and budget aggro shells where a reliable two mana ward tax and consistent green mana are useful. The art leans into the Ixalan jungle vibe and reads well from the battlefield.
