The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride — Gallop of Greed

The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride is a compact engine in a 6 5 body that demands attention when it enters combat. With trample and haste it presses damage immediately and turns each successful swing into a choice between board development and card advantage. The saddle mechanic links your creature base to a late game payoff so you can sequence attacks, sac the rider and convert a creature with meaningful power into a hand refill and land ramp in one resolution.

Play it where you already value sacrifice synergies or where a single creature can be traded to turn the battlefield into permanent advantage. The Gitrog, Ravenous Ride fits into midrange shells that want both tempo and ramp. It reads as a tactical finisher for decks that can produce creatures to saddle and are comfortable converting tempo into card selection and land drops that accelerate future turns.
