Permanents you control have "Whenever one or more +1/+1 counters are put on this permanent, put an additional +1/+1 counter on it. This ability triggers only once each turn."

Character Background

Cursed Wombat is a classic Modern Horizons-style build-around: a two-mana 2/3 that quietly turns every counter placement into a snowball, especially in a midrange value shell that can lean into incremental advantage. Its Adapt 2 activation becomes far better than it looks because the first time you place counters on it, your whole board effectively gets an extra +1/+1 counter once that turn, making combat math awkward for opponents and letting you grow threats faster than usual. It fits best in +1/+1 counter decks, particularly those using proliferate, evolve-style effects, or cards that repeatedly add counters to creatures and artifacts. A strong deckbuilding tip is to pair it with cheap creatures that naturally enter with counters or effects that distribute counters to multiple permanents over several turns, since the trigger only works once per turn. The “nightmare wombat” flavor feels like a twisted survivor—small, stubborn, and impossible to stop from getting bigger.
