Primordial Gnawer (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Near Mint Foil

Gnawer of the Cavern Depths

Primordial Gnawer is a compact threat that pulls value when it dies. This 5 2 Insect Horror costs {4}{B} and trades respectably with midrange creatures while leaving something behind for your next turn. The foil print from The Lost Caverns of Ixalan gives the card a subterranean sheen that suits decks built around sacrifice, removal and grindy attrition.

Its death trigger discovers three, meaning you get three chances to find a low mana value answer that either resolves immediately or returns to your hand. That interaction rewards deck construction that maximizes useful three mana or less targets and supports recurring sacrifice lines. Experienced players will find Primordial Gnawer useful as a tempo piece that turns a single removal into a steady stream of replacement threats or answers.
