Slither Through with Sewer Shambler
Sewer Shambler arrives as a compact threat you can slip into many black decks. Sewer Shambler is a 2/1 Zombie for {2}{B} with Swampwalk, which means it bypasses blockers when the opponent controls a Swamp. That makes it a reliable one drop on the board that pressures life totals and pokes through defenses that rely on chump blockers. For tactical plays, its low cost and evasive trait let you trade up in tempo and tax opposing removal.
The card also carries Scavenge for {2}{B}. Exiling Sewer Shambler from your graveyard lets you pump a creature by an amount equal to its 2 power. The interaction fits well with graveyard synergies and token strategies where you want repeatable pump effects without committing additional creatures. In Ravnica Remastered decks that lean into sacrifice, recursion, or incremental value, Sewer Shambler is a small but consistent piece of the puzzle.
