Threshold — This creature gets +2/+2 as long as there are seven or more cards in your graveyard.
Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
Nimble Mongoose is a classic one-drop that rewards tight, resource-efficient play, fitting best into tempo and low-curve aggro shells. A 1/1 for {G} with shroud already makes it annoying to interact with early, but the real payoff comes from threshold: once you reach seven cards in your graveyard, it becomes a 3/3 that is suddenly very hard to answer with targeted removal. That means the card wants a deck built to fill the graveyard naturally while maintaining pressure, such as lists with fetch lands, cheap cantrips, discard outlets, and trading creatures early. Because shroud also stops your own targeting, avoid pump spells and auras; instead, lean on global effects or combat tricks that don’t target. In practice, Nimble Mongoose shines as a resilient threat that keeps attacking while you sculpt the game, forcing control decks to answer it with sweepers or edicts rather than conventional spot removal.
