Character Background

Pothole Mole is a compact green value creature that reads like a mini-ramp engine: a 2/3 for {2}{G} that mills three and then lets you return a land from your graveyard to your hand on entry. Thematically it's a mole unearthing lost earth, and mechanically it's best as a value/ramp piece in midrange or toolbox decks that want steady land drops and graveyard fuel rather than pure aggro or control. The three-card mill is both cost and benefit—fueling graveyard synergies—so it pairs particularly well with Life from the Loam or Ramunap Excavator/Crucible of Worlds to turn the one-shot land recursion into repeatable advantage, or with delve/black payoffs if splashing other colors. Deckbuilding tip: treat it as a 2–3 copy inclusion in a 23–26 land list, or in self-mill builds use it to set up big graveyard payoffs; avoid it in metas heavy with Rest in Peace effects.
