Carth the Lion
Oracle Text
Whenever Carth enters or a planeswalker you control dies, look at the top seven cards of your library. You may reveal a planeswalker card from among them and put it into your hand. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.
Planeswalkers' loyalty abilities you activate cost an additional [+1] to activate.
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Carth the Lion is a value engine disguised as a sturdy 3/5 body, and he clearly rewards a grindy midrange or control shell built around planeswalkers. His enters-the-battlefield trigger and death trigger on your walkers both dig seven cards deep, so every walker that hits the table or later gets removed can turn into another copy of the one you need, effectively smoothing draws and refilling your hand with threats. The extra loyalty cost is the main tax to plan around, so prioritize planeswalkers with powerful static abilities, passive value, or loyalty abilities that remain strong even when delayed by one activation. In deckbuilding, he pairs especially well with cheap ramp and resilient walkers, letting you cast him early and start chaining advantage. He also shines with sacrifice-friendly or attrition-heavy builds, since your own planeswalkers dying can still generate card selection. Overall, Carth supports a recursive value plan that buries opponents over time rather than racing them.
