Yarus Brings the Roar
Yarus, Roar of the Old Gods is a compact engine for aggressive midrange builds that want to move quickly from board presence to card advantage. For {2}{G}{R} you get a legendary centaur druid that gives all your creatures haste and converts face down combat pressure into card draw. The artwork shows a weathered centaur leading a brutal charge across ash and root, which fits the card role in decks that rely on morph or manifest threats and want them to matter the turn they hit.
In play Yarus smooths the timing of a face down strategy by returning dying face down permanents to the battlefield and then immediately turning them face up. That loop keeps tempo while feeding your hand when your face down creatures connect. Seasoned players will use Yarus to sequence blocks and attacks so that one face down creature can trade and come back, or push through damage to refill resources without slowing the battlefield clock.
