Skyborn Drakecaller
Alandra, Sky Dreamer rewards a hand heavy game plan with reliable token generation and a potent payoff window. In practice this card sets a cadence for draw turns. On your second draw each turn you get a 2 2 blue Drake token with flying so the board state grows while you keep developing your plan. The tokens provide air coverage and a steady source of pressure that pairs well with cantrips and card draw engines.
The second ability scales into late game turns where your library and hand size matter. On your fifth draw each turn Alandra and each Drake you control get +X/+X until end of turn where X equals the number of cards in your hand. That shifts the card from a value generator into a combat engine. Use this in decks that stack draws in a single turn and that can protect the commander while you assemble a finishing swing. A practical choice for Merfolk Wizard led builds that lean into storm like turns without giving up tempo.
