Buzzcrusher: Landfall Diplomacy, Goblin Style

Krenko's Buzzcrusher is a compact but impactful threat that rewrites the battlefield as it arrives. The card pairs Flying and trample with a four four body, letting it pressure planes and punch through blockers. Its enter the battlefield trigger targets lands across the table so it acts as both disruption and reset, forcing opponents to reconsider greedy mana bases while leaving room for basic recovery.

From a deckbuilding perspective this is a versatile inclusion for red artifact aggro or a Rakdos midrange shell that wants asymmetric removal without direct creature answers. The flavor fits Murders at Karlov Manor with a mechanical insect turned instrument of chaos. Play it when you can leverage nonbasic dependence or to blunt problematic color fixing. Experienced players will appreciate how the effect taxes greedy starts but still respects the game's resource economy by allowing basic replacement.
