Drudge Beetle
Oracle Text
Scavenge {5}{G} ({5}{G}, Exile this card from your graveyard: Put a number of +1/+1 counters equal to this card's power on target creature. Scavenge only as a sorcery.)
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Drudge Beetle is a modest Ravnica workhorse that fits best in value-oriented or midrange green decks, especially ones that care about graveyard resources and incremental board growth. A 2/2 for two mana is perfectly serviceable on curve, but its real strength is scavenge: later, it turns into a source of permanent power by exiling itself to place +1/+1 counters on a creature. That makes it ideal in attrition games, where trading early and then converting a dead Beetle into a threat on your best evasive or resilient creature can swing combat. It pairs particularly well with creatures that already have trample, evasion, or built-in protection, since extra counters become much harder to answer profitably. In practice, think of it as a two-phase card: early tempo blocker, late-game upgrade package. In Limited, it rewards patience and board presence; in Constructed, it’s most attractive when your deck can reliably fill the graveyard and exploit counter synergies.
