Wake the Third Head
Slumbering Cerberus puts a patient threat into your red aggro or sacrifice shell. For a single red and one colorless, this 4/2 Creature Dog arrives tapped into combat math that trades favorably and forces opponents to respect early pressure. It does not untap during your untap step, which reads as a tempo tax, but its Morbid ability lets it snap back into action at the beginning of each end step if a creature died that turn. That interaction rewards deck construction that cultivates trading, sacrifice effects, or token chaff to flip the Cerberus from passive body to active attacker repeatedly.
The Foundations printing carries straightforward art and a clean layout that fits modern play while still appealing to collectors. This copy is Light Play and suitable for play or graded storage; expect minor surface wear or edge whitening consistent with light use. If you pilot red decks that prize incremental advantage and recurring threats, Slumbering Cerberus is a compact, efficient slot that converts each death on the board into combat tempo. Add it to your decklist and test how often one fallen creature turns a tapped liability into a lethal menace.
