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

Mycotyrant, Fungal Overlord

The Mycotyrant rewards board presence and a leaning into token strategies. The Mycotyrant is a Legendary Creature Elder Fungus that scales with the number of Fungi and Saprolings you control, so its raw power and toughness reflect your commitment to a fungal army. It also carries trample which lets a wide body still push through damage even if blockers remain. This near mint foil from The Lost Caverns of Ixalan is a solid inclusion when you want a creature that both benefits from and amplifies a token plan.

At the end of the turn the card can seed additional bodies based on how many times you descended this turn. That makes The Mycotyrant a logical pairing with effects that generate descent triggers or that create Saproling and Fungus tokens throughout the turn. The card fits comfortably into midrange decks that convert incremental advantages into a board wide threat while offering a clear synergy with black token producers and sacrifice outlets.
