Marauding Mako — Bite on Demand
Marauding Mako is a compact red one drop that rewards discard strategies with steady growth. Marauding Mako grows when you feed it cards from hand, turning small sacrifices into incremental board presence. The card's low casting cost and simple 1 1 body make it easy to deploy early and pressure opponents while you set up recurring discard triggers.
The included Cycling ability gives a reliable fallback when you need card selection rather than another body. In Aetherdrift skirmishes the Shark Pirate fits in aggressive and midrange shells that leverage graveyard interaction, token synergies, or forced discards. If your deck can discard as a resource, Marauding Mako converts those losses into a threat that scales through the mid game. Add it to packs and decks that want efficient redundancy and flexible turns.
