About Scute Swarm

Scute Swarm, Creature — insect, designed by Alex Konstad first released in Sep, 2020 in the set Zendikar Rising and was printed exactly in 11 different ways. It's a key card in 10 combos.

A landfall-themed deck would greatly benefit from including Scute Swarm, as it can quickly generate a swarm of powerful insect tokens. However, there are potentially better cards for this strategy, such as Avenger of Zendikar, which creates a larger number of tokens in one go. Scute Swarm could still see play in a landfall deck for its incremental token generation and potential for explosive growth with six or more lands.

Rules

09/25/20

A landfall ability doesn’t trigger if a permanent already on the battlefield becomes a land.

09/25/20

If Scute Swarm leaves the battlefield before its triggered ability resolves, the token will still enter the battlefield as a copy of Scute Swarm, using Scute Swarm’s copiable values from when it was last on the battlefield.

09/25/20

The token copy will have Scute Swarm’s ability. It will also be able to create copies of itself.
