Rambling Possum struts into the Outlaws of Thunder Junction as a compact green mount that pressures the ground game. At {2}{G} this 3/3 Creature can be saddled to turn into a more efficient attacker. Its attack trigger gives a short term stat edge and a built in bounce effect that lets you pull back creatures that helped it charge, letting you reuse enter the battlefield effects or protect fragile riders after combat.
The wording on the card rewards careful timing and sequencing. Saddle plays like a mini equipment that requires you to tap other creatures for a window of tempo. In practice you can saddle this Possum to push through damage and then return your tapped creatures to hand to redeploy them or save them from removal. For players who draft or build around mounts, this card offers flexible combat utility and card advantage in tight skirmishes.
