What it does
Detritivore's power and toughness are each equal to the number of nonbasic land cards in your opponents' graveyards.
Suspend X—X mana 3 generic mana red mana. X can't be 0. (Rather than cast this card from your hand, you may pay X mana 3 generic mana red mana and exile it with X time counters on it. At the beginning of your upkeep, remove a time counter. When the last is removed, you may cast it without paying its mana cost. It has haste.)
Whenever a time counter is removed from this card while it's exiled, destroy target nonbasic land.

Where it came from
Detritivore was released in 2007 as part of the Planar Chaos expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The set was designed around an alternate-reality theme, where key historical events in the game's lore had unfolded differently, resulting in shifted color identities and radical mechanical reimagining of established card archetypes.
The art for this card was created by illustrator Pete Venters, who focused on depicting the creature as a subterranean scavenger suited to the set's rugged, shifting landscapes. The design reflects the 'suspend' mechanic central to the Time Spiral block, allowing players to pay a lower cost to play the creature later, which emphasizes the card's theme of slow, inevitable consumption.
