The Mycotyrant (Showcase) (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Near Mint

The Mycotyrant Reigns

The Mycotyrant is a concise statement about board presence and scaling power. The Mycotyrant from The Lost Caverns of Ixalan costs {1}{B}{B} and arrives with trample and a variable body. Its printed ability links power and toughness to the number of creatures you control that are Fungi and or Saprolings so this card grows naturally in token shells and fungus synergies. It reads well at midgame where a steady stream of tokens or summoned Fungus makes the Mycotyrant a living threat rather than a dead draw.

Beyond raw stats the Mycotyrant provides recurring value. At the beginning of your end step it creates X 1 1 black Fungus creature tokens with the reminder that those tokens cannot block where X equals the number of times you descended this turn. That makes it a reliable token generator in aggressive or aristocrat style decks and a nice fit with sacrifice outlets. Use it as a win condition in creature heavy builds or as a tempo piece that converts your descent triggers into board presence.
