Fell the Pheasant

Green's answer to the sky has always come with a leash: Plummet, Broken Wings, and their kin only speak to airborne targets, the color-pie tradeoff that lets green kill a flyer efficiently while general removal stays outside its lane. This one honors the same flying-only clause, then bolts on a rider that has nothing to do with the kill. Five damage for two mana is generous enough to fell most dragons and angels a grounded green deck would otherwise have no clean answer to. The Food token is the tell about how the card was built: narrow removal earns its undercosting only because it does nothing against a board with nothing in the air, so the design softens that risk by leaving a life-gain resource behind on the turn it does connect. That matters twice over for sacrifice shells that want fodder as much as they want the flyer dead: the spell still demands a legal flying target to resolve, so it cannot be cast into empty air just to mint the artifact, but when a flyer is present, one card removes a threat and feeds an engine in the same breath. The answer pays part of its own conditional cost, generating a permanent whenever it lands rather than fading to a spent instant. The flavor closes the loop the mechanics do: a hunt that ends with dinner on the table.
