Power: 4 | Speed: 4 | Rarity: Common | World Region: The Sacred Groves
Origins: Grove Hound is the Earth Common tier's 4/4 – the maximum Common stat line. It's the guardian of the Sacred Groves, alert to every tremor in the root network beneath it, and has never been successfully ambushed because the ground tells it what's coming. It is deeply unimpressed by cards that approach from above.
Finishing Move: Pack Tracking: Uses the Sacred Groves' deep root network to track a target's position underground. The attack comes from where the target will be, not where it is.
Synergy & Rivalry: The Earth anchor Common. Nature's Meadow Ox shares its grove territory and they have developed a working agreement that benefits both parties more than either one officially acknowledges.
