Skyserpent Seeker — Aerial Scout with a Bite
Skyserpent Seeker is a compact, efficient threat from Aetherdrift that combines evasive reach with removal potential. Skyserpent Seeker has flying and deathtouch which makes it a reliable blocker and an economical attacker. Its one one body is easy to protect and trades favorably against larger flyers, while the creature type Snake can fit into a variety of tribal or tempo shells.
The Exhaust ability reads like a late game land accelerator and a growth trigger all in one. For four mana you can activate Exhaust to reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal two land cards, put those lands onto the battlefield tapped and the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order, then put a +1/+1 counter on this creature. Use Skyserpent Seeker in midrange decks that need occasional mana smoothing and a threat that scales, or as a one drop in blue green decks where evasive deathtouch bodies buy time and convert surplus mana into permanent advantage. Condition Near Mint, English print from the Aetherdrift set makes this an ideal pick for competitive play or collection display.
