Artist: Jason A. Engle

The Rapacious One is a formidable creature that not only presents a significantly combat threat with its its trample ability but also services as a resource generator, Turning Each Point of Combat Damage Into Potential Mana for Future Turns. The Eldrazi Theme of Devouring and Converting Resources Into Power is clearly evident in this card.

The art by Jason A. Engle would Likely Depict the Rapacious One as an imposing, otherworldly entity, its form Both alien and menacing. As it Rampages, the Land Might Fracture and Warp, Giving Birth to the Eldrazi Spawn in Its Wake, Representing the Creature's Unique Ability to Spawn More of its child from the Devastation It Causes.

This Creature is particularly valuable in decks that look to capitalize on both aggressive strategies and the need for ramp, providing Both a potent attacher and a way to fuel larger, more devastating plays in the later internships of a game.
