Scarab Seer on Watch
Prophet of the Scarab arrives as a steady blue threat that rewards graveyard investment and board presence. With a casting cost of {4}{U} and Vigilance, this Zombie Wizard blocks and attacks without losing tempo. Its enter the battlefield trigger reads clearly and cleanly: when it enters, draw cards equal to the number of Zombies you control or the number of Zombie cards in your graveyard, whichever is greater. That effect turns multiples and dredge style recursion into card advantage and smooths awkward midgame draws.
