Festering Newt

{B}

Creature — Salamandercommon

When this creature dies, target creature an opponent controls gets -1/-1 until end of turn. That creature gets -4/-4 instead if you control a creature named Bogbrew Witch.

Its back bubbles like a witch's cauldron, and it smells just as vile.

Whether you control a creature named Bogbrew Witch is checked only as the triggered ability resolves. How the target creature is affected won’t change if you gain or lose control of all your Bogbrew Witches later in the turn.
