What it does

Create two 1/1 red Goblin creature tokens.

Gnorl and Vurg knew all too well how much dragons liked to eat goblins, but they had a dream that could not be dampened: they were going to be the first goblins to eat a dragon.

Provenance

Where it came from

Dragon Fodder was originally introduced in the Alara block as a common red sorcery, designed to reflect the aggressive, swarm-oriented nature of the Jund shard. It serves a functional role in Magic: The Gathering by providing two goblin tokens for a low mana cost, embodying the thematic sacrifice of expendable creatures to empower greater threats.

This specific iteration appears as part of The List, a curated selection of cards from the game's history inserted into modern booster packs. The original artwork, illustrated by Dave Kendall, captures the gritty, visceral aesthetic of the Alara setting, focusing on the chaotic and disposable nature of goblin minions within the game's broader lore.
