Caustic Caterpillarremoval$0.27Very similar green creature-based removal for artifacts or enchantments, with a cheaper sacrifice activation and the same broad utility. It is a common budget replacement for Viridian Zealot.
Reclamation Sageremoval$0.19Hits the same artifact/enchantment target on a creature body, but gives immediate value on entering the battlefield instead of requiring a sacrifice. It is one of the most popular strict upgrades in green decks.
Haywire Miteremoval$0.41A compact green utility creature that can exile an artifact or enchantment, serving the same role in a more efficient body. Its life gain is a small bonus over straight destruction.
Manglehornremoval$0.88A creature-based answer to artifacts that also slows opposing artifact mana, making it a similar utility slot in green. It is broader in artifact hate but does not hit enchantments.
Bane of Progressremoval$3.87A much larger green creature that clears artifacts and enchantments at once, serving as a powerful sweeper version of the same anti-permanent role. It is a stronger top-end payoff for the same deck space.
Wilt-Leaf Liegeutility$0.21Not removal, but a green-white creature that is often used as an anti-discard or resilient board piece in similar midrange shells. If you want a stronger creature-centric green card instead of artifact/enchantment hate, this is a common functional upgrade in creature decks.
Qasali Pridemageremoval$0.19A creature with a sacrifice ability to destroy an artifact or enchantment, closely mirroring Viridian Zealot’s play pattern. It is more efficient because the effect is built into a cheaper body with exalted upside.
WiltremovalBudget$0.15A flexible green spell that destroys an artifact or enchantment or cycles when needed, filling the same hate slot in more spell-based decks. It trades the creature body for lower opportunity cost.
