Super Mutant Scavenger

Creature — Mutant Warrior4 generic manaGreen mana

The trample body is the least interesting thing here; the recursion trigger is the whole reason to run it. Most graveyard-to-hand loops on green creatures ask you to build around a single recurring theme, but the entry-or-death phrasing turns this into a two-for-one that fires on both ends of its life cycle: cast it to reclaim a fallen piece of gear, then trade it away or sacrifice it to get another one back. That doubling changes how you value the body. A 5/5 for five is unremarkable on rate, but a 5/5 that hands you an Equipment on the way in and again on the way out means you never lose tempo to a blocker or a removal spell; the beater dying is not a setback, it is the second half of the payoff. It rewards decks that lean on a small stable of high-impact Auras and Equipment rather than a wide toolbox, because you want the returned card to matter every time the trigger resolves. The design leans on a familiar green idea (creatures that refuse to leave a trade unbalanced) and points it specifically at the gear you have already invested in, so an opponent spending a removal spell on this is often just handing you back a card you were happy to recast anyway.
