Aerie Auxiliary Takes Flight
Aerie Auxiliary is a 3/3 flying Bird Soldier that costs 3W to cast. On entry it triggers a potent support ability, placing a +1/+1 counter on each of up to two other target creatures. In practice this means you can quickly grow your team’s power while you maintain air superiority, giving you a solid edge against ground blockades.
Its presence helps you tempo into bigger threats without overcommitting, especially in boards where you already run a contingent of creatures ready to receive a boost. The flavor text hints at a skyward perspective on tactics, contrasting the ground focus of the Horde with the advantages of elevation: “The hordechief's ground tactics were unsurpassed. If only he'd thought to watch the skies.”
