Stormshell Sentinel
Ambling Stormshell is a heavy-hitting blue beater that rewards patient sequencing and creature synergies. At {3}{U}{U} this 5/9 Turtle arrives with Ward 2, forcing opponents to pay or redirect removal before they can interact. Its attack trigger is unusual: when Ambling Stormshell attacks you place three stun counters on it and draw three cards, a trade that trades tempo for raw card advantage and sets up future turns.
The shell becomes a strategic pivot in decks built around Turtle tribal or blink effects. Because it untaps when you cast a Turtle spell you can attack, draw, and then recur or replay other Turtles to attack again, leveraging the interaction to generate incremental value. This light play foil from Tarkir Dragonstorm offers clear playability in Commander or casual constructed where board resilience and repeatable draw matter. Add it to decks that want a durable finisher and practical card selection. Buy now to secure a foil copy that plays well and looks distinct on the battlefield.
