Mtenda Lion, Creature — cat, designed by Stuart Griffin first released in May, 2020 in the set Mirage.
Mtenda Lion fits well in a tempo-oriented or aggro deck that seeks to apply early pressure while also having a disruptive element against control strategies. Its ability to force the defending player to potentially pay {U} to prevent damage can create a psychological edge, making it harder for opponents to commit resources effectively. However, there are arguably better options for aggressive green creatures, such as Adanto Vanguard or Pelt Collector, which offer more consistent damage output or additional utility. Overall, while Mtenda Lion has its niche, it may not see widespread play compared to more efficient or impactful alternatives in competitive environments.
