Oracle Text
Indestructible (Effects that say "destroy" don't destroy this artifact.)
{2}, {T}, Sacrifice this artifact: You gain 3 life.
When this artifact is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, draw a card.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Nutrient Block is a deceptively simple one-mana indestructible Food that winds up being a steady value engine: pay {2}, tap and sacrifice it to gain 3 life, and whenever it hits the graveyard from the battlefield you draw a card. That combination leans toward value and midrange/control game plans — it stabilizes life totals while replacing itself, buying time against aggro and smoothing late-game draws. Because it’s indestructible it dodges “destroy”-based sweeps, so it’s especially useful in decks that want inevitability through incremental advantage. Deckbuilding tip: pair it with sacrifice outlets like Ashnod’s Altar or Viscera Seer to harvest its draw trigger repeatedly or to convert the sacrifice into extra value (mana or scry) without always paying the {2} activation; it also plays well with artifact-recursion and life-gain synergies such as Ajani’s Pridemate. In short, Nutrient Block is a cheap, resilient plug-in for decks that prioritize steady card advantage and survivability.
