Lasyd Prowler: Jungle-Forged Ambusher
Lasyd Prowler from Tarkir Dragonstorm slots into green builds as a resilient 5/5 body for {2}{G}{G} that gives value both on entry and from the graveyard. When Lasyd Prowler enters the battlefield you may mill cards equal to the number of lands you control, a tidy way to stock your yard for land count synergies while presenting a large creature that pressures blockers and stabilizes boards. The art shows a sinuous Snake Ranger moving through dense foliage, which matches its practical role as a midrange threat in decks that want both tempo and graveyard fuel.
The printed Renew ability reads as a reanimation style utility that converts land density into growth. For {1}{G} and exile from your graveyard you put X plus one plus one counters on target creature where X is the number of land cards in your graveyard, activated only as a sorcery. That interaction makes Lasyd Prowler useful in slower games and complements landfall, dredge, and recursion themes. If you collect Near Mint singles from Tarkir Dragonstorm this Rare is a straightforward inclusion for green decks looking for repeatable value. Add Lasyd Prowler to your deck and test how its milling and renewal change match tempo.
