Reef Worm: Deep Tides of Token Cascade
Reef Worm costs {3}{U} and comes into play as a lean 0/1 blue Worm. Its real value shows after death, when it triggers a chain of token births: When ReefWorm dies, create a 3/3 blue Fish creature token with 'When this creature dies, create a 6/6 blue Whale creature token with 'When this creature dies, create a 9/9 blue Kraken creature token.' The sequence turns a single fade into a rising tide of threats across the board, offering blue players a compact engine that scales as the game unfolds.
Think through how to leverage this with blue's resilience—flicker effects, bounce spells, or graveyard manipulation can extend the cascade or reset the chain for multiple turns. In practice, Reef Worm rewards careful timing and deck building, delivering incremental value that surfaces even after the initial body hits the graveyard.
