Oracle Text
Trample
Splinterfright's power and toughness are each equal to the number of creature cards in your graveyard.
At the beginning of your upkeep, mill two cards. (Put the top two cards of your library into your graveyard.)
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Splinterfright is a classic graveyard engine that rewards a value-leaning midrange or self-mill game plan, with a strong secondary role in combo shells that care about filling the bin. For just three mana, it can become a huge trampler quickly, since its power and toughness scale with creature cards in your graveyard while its upkeep mill keeps feeding itself. The creature reads like a living heap of broken growth and discarded bodies, which fits its gameplay perfectly: it turns attrition into pressure. To maximize it, build with cheap self-mill cards, fetchlands, and recursive creatures so you keep stocking the graveyard without running out of material. It also pairs well with cards that care about graveyard count or reanimation, since milling creatures fuels multiple angles at once. Just remember that exile effects and graveyard hate can shrink it fast, so support it with redundancy rather than relying on a single giant threat.
