Yathan Roadwatcher — Scout the Grave
Yathan Roadwatcher is a tight, utility creature that slots into midrange and graveyard focused builds. As a 3 3 for {1}{W}{B}{G}, Yathan trades raw tempo for card advantage through milling. When you cast it and it enters the battlefield, you mill four cards and then may return a creature card with mana value three or less from your graveyard to the battlefield. The sequence rewards deliberate sequencing and deck construction that populates the graveyard with targets you actually want back on board.
From a tactical standpoint Yathan Roadwatcher shines where resilience matters. Use it to recur cheap threats, reset value creatures after board wipes, or enable synergies with delve and threshold style strategies. The card fits Tarkir themes by blending battlefield presence with resource manipulation; it keeps your plan adaptive against removal and mirrors. If you build around efficient graveyard recursion Yathan becomes a consistent engine. Add this Near Mint English copy to your collection or deck to shore up your midrange and value lines now.
