Insatiable Appetite

Instant1 generic manaGreen mana

Most pump spells make you weigh a fixed bonus against a fixed cost. This one hides an optional upgrade inside a resource you may already have on the table, and turns the trick into a Food payoff. The floor is a clean +3/+3, playable on its own, so the card never rots in hand waiting for a token; when a Food is lying around, cashing it in bumps the swing to +5/+5, enough to blow out a losing block or shove lethal through a stalled board. The tidy part of the design is that the Food is never a cost you are locked into paying: decks built around the Food subtheme get the ceiling, while the ones that stumbled into a single leftover Golden Egg still get a serviceable green trick. It descends from instant-speed combat pumps going back to Giant Growth, but bolts the scaling to a specific mechanical ecosystem rather than raw stats. The instant timing carries the whole plan: hold it up, bait a block or a removal spell, then decide at the last possible window whether the extra two power is worth spending the token for. A green trick that scales with your leftovers and stays honest when you have none.
