Magebane Lizard — Fireback Harasser Magebane Lizard is a compact threat that punishes busy hands. For a single red plus one colorless mana you get a 1 4 body that grows dangerous the more noncreature spells hit the stack. Whenever a player casts a noncreature spell the lizard deals damage to that player equal to the number of noncreature spells they have cast this turn. The effect scales within a turn so it pressures opponents to stagger their spell sequence or accept repeated chip damage.
In play the lizard excels in tempo and soft lock roles. It buys time against spell heavy decks and punishes storm lines without demanding dedicated synergies. The artwork and a short snippet of frontier banter hint at a creature used by outlaws to guard cache lines of lightning bolts and contraband, practical and stubborn rather than grandiose. Light Play foil printing gives it a subtle shine without altering how it bends the stack.
