# Sand Scout
- **Mana Cost:** `{1}{W}` (CMC: 2)
- **Type:** Creature — Human Scout

## Oracle Text
When this creature enters, if an opponent controls more lands than you, search your library for a Desert card, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.
Whenever one or more land cards are put into your graveyard from anywhere, create a 1/1 red, green, and white Sand Warrior creature token. This ability triggers only once each turn.
