When Tinybones enters, each opponent discards a card. Whenever a player discards one or more cards, Tinybones deals 1 damage to each opponent.
Predicted power
Standard 24 Eng.FUsr.

A 3-mana 2/1 for one opponent-chosen discard and 1 damage is far below normal standalone rate; no supported Standard discard shell is shown.

Band speculativeConfidence 65%

Could be wrong if Additional efficient discard payoffs or a black attrition shell could make its repeatable damage trigger relevant.

Pioneer 18 Eng.FUsr.

Pioneer's hand disruption is expected to be much cheaper; this fragile three-drop offers only a one-shot discard without enough immediate board impact.

Band speculativeConfidence 72%

Could be wrong if A credible discard-focused deck could want it as a redundant damage payoff, though none is supplied.

Modern 16 Eng.FUsr.

Three mana for a 2/1 and a single discard is too slow for Modern, and the damage trigger needs repeated discard events that the card does not provide.

Band speculativeConfidence 78%

Could be wrong if An unusually dense, competitive discard-combo shell could turn the trigger into a low-cost finisher.

Legacy 15 Eng.FUsr.

Legacy demands much more mana efficiency and resilience than a 3-mana 2/1; its single discard effect is unlikely to justify a slot.

Band speculativeConfidence 80%

Could be wrong if A new repeatable discard engine with strong black tutor support could create a narrow payoff role.

Pauper Eng.NLUsr.
Commander 55 Eng.C+Usr.

Against three opponents, its ETB normally causes three discard triggers and 3 damage to each opponent; dedicated discard decks can repeatedly exploit the payoff.

Best home Discard and group-slug decksBand role-playerConfidence 67%

Could be wrong if It provides no cards or protection, and opponents may remove the 2/1 before later discard effects matter.

Limited 56 Eng.C+Usr.

Early it is a two-for-one: a 2/1 plus an opponent discard and 1 damage. Its weak body and poor late-game discard keep it from premium status.

Best home Black attrition decksBand solidConfidence 38%

Could be wrong if Unknown format speed and synergy may make the low-stat body either acceptable attrition or replaceable filler.

Discard payoff creature

“A fragile three-drop whose one-shot discard is inefficient in duels but becomes meaningful multiplayer damage in dedicated discard strategies.”

AI prediction made before release — not a measured result. Real performance data replaces this once the set is legal and tournament results come in.
