The Scorpion God
Oracle Text
Whenever a creature with a -1/-1 counter on it dies, draw a card.

When The Scorpion God dies, return it to its owner's hand at the beginning of the next end step.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
The Scorpion God is a brutal value engine that best fits a control or midrange plan, rewarding you for turning every removal spell into card advantage. Its lore and mechanics line up cleanly: a towering god that stalks the battlefield, marks prey with poison, and refuses to stay dead, since it returns to hand after dying. In play, the key is to spread -1/-1 counters efficiently and then cash them in when those creatures die to draw extra cards. It pairs especially well with proliferate, counter-based removal, and cards that place counters repeatedly so you can keep the engine running. In Commander or slower constructed shells, look for synergy with Nest of Scarabs, Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons, or effects that give creatures -1/-1 counters at scale. The activated ability also lets it function as a repeatable threat and removal source, making it excellent in grindy games where patience and resource denial matter most.
