Voracious Varmint: Snack and Snag
Voracious Varmint is a compact green play that fits into tempo or toolbox builds from Outlaws of Thunder Junction. At two mana it presents a steady blocker with vigilance and a built in answer to problematic artifacts or enchantments. The sacrifice ability trades a small board presence for targeted removal which can swing parity back in your favor when grave interaction or bounce is not available.
Use the Varmint as an early chump that still contributes to your late game plan. It pairs well with effects that care about creatures entering or leaving the battlefield and with decks that can recur or get value from sacrifices. The foil Near Mint print shown here makes it both a functional inclusion and a neat collector piece for players who like a little outlaw flavor in their green builds.
