Kavu Scout

Creature — Kavu Scout2 generic manaRed mana

Domain asked a question every multicolor set keeps circling: how do you reward a stretched manabase without simply printing more fixing? The answer here is a creature whose power tracks exactly how greedy your lands are. Stop at one or two basic land types and you have a glorified 1/2 or 2/2 that trades for nothing; assemble all five, the implicit goal of any five-color deck, and the same three mana buys a 5/2 with no further investment. The cost is front-loaded, the payoff entirely deferred onto land drops you were making anyway, which is the cleanest expression of what domain was built to do: convert manabase ambition into board presence. The 0/2 base does the balancing work. A creature this cheap that can grow this large needs to stay marginal until the deck has done its homework, and because domain pumps power without ever touching toughness, it never blocks well even at full size. So it lingers as a low-impact body until your lands earn the upgrade, then swings as an attacker that dies to anything pointed at it. It is a payoff that demands you qualify for it first, and one that quietly penalizes the two-color decks splashing red without committing to the full spread.
