I really enjoyed Tom Scott's latest YouTube video about bears in Yellowstone breaking into food containers and bins, and was somehow possessed by the idea of it as an artifiact removal spell.

I think even with the food token this is over costed given it's just a worse [[Natural State]] but gotta be 1G or what's even the point.

Good joke, I like it! Very flavorful, but I agree that it's over-costed. I know you want to keep it at 1G for the bear meme, so why not lean into it and actually make it a bear?

Test Bear 1G

2/2 Bear

When ~ enters the battlefield, destroy target artifact with mana value 2 or less. If you do, create a food token.

I think the joke remains intact, and this could actually fill a draft deck if it had to!

Oh that's a much better idea! Cheers.
