Mycotyrant's Grip
Tendril of the Mycotyrant is a compact engine for land based strategies and surprise clock finishing. As a 2 2 Fungus Wizard for {1}{G} it comes down early and trades up later. The activated ability lets you invest mana into a noncreature land you control and convert it into a 0 0 Fungus creature with haste while retaining its land status. That conversion can swing combat or create a sudden attacker that your opponent did not plan for.
In practice Tendril of the Mycotyrant finds a home in decks that value unconventional threats and resource conversion. Use it alongside mana sinks and sacrifice synergies where the seven +1/+1 counters become a lethal payload or fuel for proliferate loops. The Lost Caverns of Ixalan flavor fits the card well. The art and foil finish give this light play copy a subtle sheen that collectors and players will appreciate when it hits the table or the sleeve.
