mtg blue landfall cards o:landfall c!g · Scryfall Magic: The Gathering Search Art by Raymond Swanland. MtG Zendikar Rare Roil Elemental

First introduced in Magic's Journey Into Nyx set as a functional reprint of Mesmeric Fiend, Brain Maggot works as a cheap temporary removal spell and is a great way to gain information about an opponent's deck early in the game

Ver 4 Foil + Leather Box

When equipped, its essentially a Vizier of the Menagerie effect on an artifact

He's got a very fun effect, too, which essentially resurrects the creatures he kills as thralls that are 'bound' to him -- when the Krovikan Vampire dies, so do the resurrected minions

It's also a popular strategy because it immediately increases the level of politics at a table, with planeswalkers able to fix most threats

Love the artwork on this from RK Post , with the mask ripped in half symbolically
