Magebane Lizard: Scaly Sniper of Thunder Junction
Magebane Lizard rewards attention to spells. For a single red and one colorless mana you get a 1 4 body that punishes players each time they cast noncreature spells, dealing damage equal to the number of noncreature spells cast that turn. In practice this card pressures drawn out spell chains, turns each counterspell and burn spell into incremental punishment, and forces opponents to weigh every cast while the lizard basks on the battlefield.
In lore the lizard favors ambushes along the thunderous trade routes of Thunder Junction, snapping at stray bolts and wayward cantrips alike. This Near Mint Foil copy keeps the original intent intact and adds a subtle tabletop presence when you deploy it into tight metagame lines or sideboard plans that hate long turns of spell stacking.
