The Hunger Tide Rises
Awaken the swarm with this Modern Horizons 3 Saga built for creature heavy strategies. For {2}{G} it enters the battlefield and starts counting its chapters, turning your board into a growing force while lining up future plays. The art depicts a dense emerald tide of insects spiraling toward a bright central core, a visual cue for the payoffs you unlock as the tale unfolds. This is a card that rewards tempo and board presence, not splashy single bursts but a measured rise of value as the saga progresses.
Used well, The Hunger Tide Rises converts your early tokens into bigger threats and thinning options, letting you fetch a creature from your library or graveyard when you sacrifice enough creatures. That interaction creates a meaningful synergy for decks that routinely produce bodies, letting your swarm become a ladder to higher power pieces. It feels like a practical tool for green black builds, a compact enchantment that scales with your devotion to the board and the pace of your sacrifices.
