Hornet Queen
Oracle Text
Flying, deathtouch
When this creature enters, create four 1/1 green Insect creature tokens with flying and deathtouch.
Card Details
Set
Character Background
Hornet Queen reads like a classic midrange/value finisher: a 2/2 flier with deathtouch that immediately drops a four-headed aerial wall of 1/1 flying deathtouch insects, which both stabilizes the board against wide attacks and taxes combat math for opposing flyers and big attackers. Thematically it’s exactly what its name promises—a queen that pours out lethal scouts—while mechanically it buys you time and inevitability. Best used in a midrange or green-value deck that can afford seven mana, it pairs exceptionally well with token-doublers such as Parallel Lives and ramp package staples (Cultivate/Kodama’s Reach) to hit the turn reliably; anthem or pump finishes like Craterhoof Behemoth turn the swarm into a one-shot ender. It also contrasts well with control shells as a threat that survives sweepers and trades up thanks to deathtouch. Deckbuilding tip: include at least one copy of instant-speed pump or haste enabler and a token doubler to convert the queen’s raw value into immediate lethal pressure.
