Creature — Beast
Oracle Text
When this creature enters, if you control a Desert or there is a Desert card in your graveyard, you may have this creature deal 3 damage to target creature.
Watch Out
ETB trigger, not a cast triggerRules Note
This card's ability triggers when it enters the battlefield, not when it's cast. Effects that double ETB triggers (like Panharmonicon) work here. Countering the spell prevents the creature from entering, so the ETB won't fire.
