Aberrant Manawurm (SOS)

Creature — Wurm

Trample Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell, this creature gets +X/+0 until end of turn, where X is the amount of mana spent to cast that spell.

Niche growth creature for spellslinger strategies, but the damage scaling is inconsistent and the body is fragile for its cost. Works best in decks already built around cheap instant and sorcery spells—think Izzet or Gruul tempo—but lacks the evasion or protection to reliably close games, and better finishers exist at the four-mana slot.
