Child of the Volcano
Casting Cost: {3}{R}
Card Type: Creature - Elemental
Power/Toughness: 3/3
Card Text:

• Trample
• At the beginning of your end step, if you descended this turn, put a +1/+1 counter on Child of the Volcano. (You descended if a permanent card was put into your graveyard from anywhere.)

Flavour Text:

• It is a living eruption, unquenchable fury given form.
  • Artist: Uriah Voth

Card Strengths and Weaknesses:

• Strengths:

  • Trample: Child of the Volcano has trample, which means that when it attacks, any excess damage beyond what's needed to destroy a blocking creature can still be dealt to the defending player or planeswalker.
  • Growth Potential: It has the potential to grow larger with +1/+1 counters if you meet the condition of descending during your turn. This can make it a formidable threat over time.

• Weaknesses:

  • Dependent on Descending: Its growth relies on the specific condition of descending during your turn, which may require certain card interactions or deck strategies to consistently trigger.

Overall Impression: Child of the Volcano is a creature with trample that has the potential to become more powerful if you can meet the condition of descending during your turn. This can make it a growing threat that can be difficult for your opponent to deal with. Consider it for decks that can reliably trigger its growth condition.
