What it does
This spell costs 1 generic mana less to cast if your team is currently behind. (If neither player can see the scoreboard or easily verify, that means it's Schrödinger's race and you're in a quantum superposition of maybe losing and so this costs 1 generic mana less.)
When this creature enters, destroy target artifact an opponent controls.

Where it came from
The Underdog Racer, identified as CG05a, belongs to a series of promotional cards released during an obscure, single-run event. While the specific occasion remains undocumented in mainstream hobby databases, cards from this sequence were typically distributed as tabletop game incentives or booth giveaways, reflecting a period in the early 2000s when independent card manufacturers experimented with limited-distribution character sets to drive interest in niche gaming communities.
The design aesthetic features a stylized, retro-futuristic vehicle typical of the independent illustration trends prevalent at the time. By utilizing high-contrast vector art, the illustrator intended to capture a sense of kinetic energy despite the static nature of the medium. Received primarily as a curiosity among completionists, the card is valued today more for its rarity within its specific, undocumented set than for its functional use in any known competitive game.
