Yarus Roars On
Yarus, Roar of the Old Gods is a compact engine for aggressive and value oriented green red decks. As a legendary Centaur Druid with a {2}{G}{R} casting cost and a 4/4 body, Yarus gives your other creatures haste and rewards you for using face down creatures as both a tempo tool and a card advantage vector. The foil medium play copy shown carries the practical wear expected by tournament play while retaining the striking card art that fits the Murders at Karlov Manor mood.
In practice Yarus accelerates combat plans and recycles your face down threats. When a face down creature deals combat damage you draw a card. When one dies you can return it face down if it is a permanent and then immediately turn it face up, which creates looping opportunities with morph and similar mechanics. This makes Yarus a reliable piece in decks that want immediate pressure and a steady stream of interactions while still fitting into a red green curve.
