Description
Grist, the Hunger Tide, card number 306, stands as a distinctive legendary planeswalker within the Modern Horizons 2 set released by Wizards of the Coast in 2021. Designed by Victor Adame Minguez, this Mythic Rare card bridges the gap between creature and planeswalker mechanics, offering a unique dynamic for Magic: The Gathering collectors and players alike. Unlike traditional planeswalkers, Grist remains a 1/1 Insect creature when not on the battlefield, creating an intriguing dual-state identity that appeals to those who appreciate complex card designs. The card’s abilities allow players to create insect tokens, mill cards for loyalty growth, and sacrifice creatures for removal, making it a strategic centerpiece in many decks. For collectors, acquiring this card is often a key step in completing the Modern Horizons 2 base set or building a specialized planeswalker collection. The interplay between its creature and planeswalker states, combined with its high rarity status, makes it a sought-after piece for serious enthusiasts. Whether you are hunting for completionists or strategic builders, Grist represents a fascinating intersection of lore and mechanics in the 2021 release. Its presence in the Modern Horizons 2 catalog ensures it remains a relevant and valuable addition to any Magic: The Gathering library, bridging the gap between competitive play and collectible appreciation.

As long as Grist isn't on the battlefield, it's a 1/1 Insect creature in addition to its other types. +1: Create a 1/1 black and green Insect creature token, then mill a card. If an Insect card was milled this way, put a loyalty counter on Grist and repeat this process. −2: You may sacrifice a creature. When you do, destroy target creature or planeswalker. −5: Each opponent loses life equal to the number of creature cards in your graveyard.
