Fungal Rebirth

Instant2 generic manaGreen mana

The base rate is a Regrowth-style effect handed the flexibility of instant speed: pull any permanent card back to your hand, which alone justifies a slot in a grindy deck that wants to rebuy its best piece. The Saproling clause is where the card gets interesting, because the two 1/1 tokens ask for nothing the deck was not already doing: a creature dying this turn is the only condition, and a deck built around this card is dying creatures on purpose. That conditional turns a value spell into a reactive combat tool. Resolving at instant speed means you can hold it until an attacker trades, a chump blocker falls, or removal points at your board, then answer with both a rebuy and a pair of replacement bodies. The timing window is the whole plan: waiting for a death before casting makes the token half a way to punish the opponent's removal rather than a rider you have to line up in advance. The recursion and the death-triggered tokens aim at the same archetype, one where the graveyard is a resource and creatures dying is the engine, not a cost. It rewards a board that trades attrition for attrition, rebuilding faster than the opponent can dismantle it, without forcing you to hold up mana for a payoff that may never arrive.
