Pride That Grows with Every Life
Ajani's Pridemate (Borderless) from Foundations is a compact powerhouse that rewards life gain with inevitability. This Near Mint Foil print carries the borderless treatment that showcases the art while remaining tournament ready. On a single white and one generic mana this Cat Soldier starts as a 2 2 and scales quickly whenever you gain life, turning incremental healing into board presence and clock pressure.
In decks that tilt toward lifegain triggers Ajani's Pridemate functions as reliable value density and a resilient threat. It pairs cleanly with one mana spells and static life effects, and its printed text matches the Foundations wording: Whenever you gain life, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature. Use it as an early blocker, a late game finisher, or a companion to anthem effects. Add this foil borderless to a collection or a deck and let the pride grow each time the needle moves.
