Card face

What it does

Whenever an artifact you control enters, this creature gets +2/+0 and gains trample until end of turn.

If an elf can dream it, a dwarf can build it, and a gremlin can eat it.

Provenance

Where it came from

Salivating Gremlins was released in 2016 as part of the Kaladesh expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The set introduced an optimistic, invention-focused world inspired by Indian aesthetics and a steam-powered aesthetic known as aetherpunk. As a common creature, the card was designed to populate the Limited environment, specifically supporting red-aligned artifact synergy mechanics that defined the set's gameplay identity.

The artwork was commissioned from illustrator Christopher Burdett, who captured the chaotic, scavenger nature of the gremlin species endemic to the plane of Kaladesh. Burdett utilized sharp, energetic brushwork to emphasize the creature's frantic demeanor and reliance on consuming raw aether. Upon release, the card was well-received by players for its thematic consistency and its functional role as a low-cost aggressive threat in draft and sealed formats.
