Saga Enchantments first appeared in 2019\u2019s Dominaria set and have become a beloved staple of MTG in the years since. The Hunger Tide Rises is part of a cycle of Sagas related to the Modern Horizons 3\u2019s flip-walkers, with Ral and the Implicit Maze and Ajani fells the Godsire continuing the pattern. The Hunger Tide Rises shows the ascendance of Grist, an insect Planeswalker that can control whole swarms. Grist been an iconic figure in MTG since their debut in Modern Horizons 2, thanks to their unsettling appearance and broad usefulness in Golgari decks. The Hunger Tide Rises has four chapters, with the first three creating a 1\/1 black and green Insect Creature token. Then, when The Hunger Tide Rises progresses to its fourth chapter, its controller may sacrifice any number of Creatures to fetch a Creature with equal or lesser mana value than the number of sacrificed Creatures directly to the field. As well as serving as a unique token generator and search card, The Hunger Tide Rises works perfectly as an enabler for its namesake. After spending its first three steps generating 1\/1 tokens, you\u2019ll have enough Creatures to sacrifice on step four to search for a copy of Grist, the Hunger Tide. Grist, Voracious Larva \u2013 the new pre-spark flip-walker debuting in Modern Horizons 3 \u2013 can be used as fuel for the Saga\u2019s third step and brought right back from the grave, ready to be transformed.

Assuming I want to fetch a Memnite because I grew fond of the 1\/1s the saga produced and want another, can I just choose to not sacrifice and still get one?\u201d Other commenters were quick to confirm that this idea would work, alongside another creative suggestion: \u201cCan also go get a Walking Ballista directly into the yard for a Soul Cauldron combo.\u201d The Hunger Tide Rises is a perfect companion to Modern Horizons 3\u2019s celebration of Planeswalkers, and Saga fans will be happy to give this new four-step searcher a try.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Modern Horizons 3\u2019s new Saga is a perfect combo with Golgari Planeswalker WotCThe Hunger Tide Rises is a new green mana Saga debuting in MTG\u2019s Modern Horizons 3 set, and fans of the card type and Golgari strategies will be all too happy to add this card to a variety of decks.
