Veteran of the Depths
Oracle Text
Whenever this creature becomes tapped, you may put a +1/+1 counter on it.
Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
Veteran of the Depths is a straightforward but quietly resilient white threat that rewards a tempo or value-oriented game plan, especially in decks that can tap creatures for profit. A 2/2 for four mana is modest on rate, but the repeatable +1/+1 counter clause means it can steadily grow out of burn range and turn into a credible finisher if you can trigger it multiple times. The best support comes from cards that tap creatures without sending them into combat, such as Convoke payoffs, crew effects, or tap abilities like “tap: do something” on utility permanents. In a Merfolk shell, it also fits the theme of disciplined soldiers fighting in the depths, a seasoned trooper who grows stronger through repeated engagements rather than explosive bursts. In Limited, it is a solid board presence; in Constructed, it wants protection, untap effects, or ways to capitalize on a larger body.
