Creature - Lizard Beast (U)
Mutate (If you cast this spell for its mutate cost, put it over or under target non-Human creature you own. They mutate into the creature on top plus all abilities from under it.)
Whenever this creature mutates, return target instant or sorcery card from your graveyard to your hand.
2/3

I'm really liking some of these low cost mutate creatures. This one feels like it could see play outside of Standard. Cast this for mutate on your Goblin Guide, now it's a 2/3 and you get to bring back a Lightning Bolt or other spell. I dig it.

Edit: As has been noted, mutate doesn't work on Humans, so no Monastery Swiftspear, but my point still stands.

Looks like Faerie Dragon has a friend.

Mutate can't target humans, so you need a different target than the Swiftspear.

That nonhuman clause on Mutate is going to trip a lot of folks up, especially in the future when it's long since rotated.

I can already see myself making this mistake several more times at a prerelease. Can't wait for it to cost me a match.

Wow, that's a really low mutate cost for triggering some of those big mutate triggers. And it even comes with its own mutate trigger!
