Krenko's Buzzcrusher
Krenko's Buzzcrusher arrives as a compact wrecking machine in red aggro builds. The Artifact Creature Insect Thopter carries Flying and trample and hits like a midrange threat while also pressuring mana bases. When it enters the battlefield, it forces each player to lose up to one nonbasic land, and then offers that player the option to fetch a basic land tapped. That interaction turns a one for one removal into a tempo play you can exploit in mirror matches and against greedy manabases.
Play this card where attacking in the air matters and where land disruption translates into card advantage. It pairs cleanly with sacrifice effects and token synergies and it fits Krenko led decks that want both evasion and immediate board impact. The printed rules text below is exact to the Murders at Karlov Manor release so you can build and test without ambiguity.
