Skittering Precursor: Eldrazi Spawn on the Move
Precursor to Chaos, Skittering Precursor leans into the Devoid aesthetic while pressing the threat with menace. It presents a solid colorless body that stays relevant throughout the game, and its trigger rewards you for sacrificing a nontoken permanent by creating a 0/1 Eldrazi Spawn token. Each Spawn carries a small, self contained payoff with Sacrifice this creature: Add {C}, giving you a trickle of colorless mana to fuel the next play.
In practice, the card offers a steady engine rather than a one shot payoff. The 3/3 body presses for damage or blocks while the Spawn tokens proliferate resources and options, enabling mid game ramps and sac outlet synergies. It fits neatly into sacrifice oriented strategies and helps advance the Eldrazi motif that Modern Horizons 3 explores with this set’s personality.
