Skybound Mercenary on the Prowl
Angelic Sell-Sword fits the Outlaws of Thunder Junction vibe by blending disciplined offense with opportunistic token generation. This Near Mint Foil extended art print plays like a reliable midrange threat. It comes down for {4}{W}, arrives as a 4/4 flying vigilance creature and triggers a steady stream of 1/1 red Mercenary tokens whenever it or another nontoken creature enters under your control. Those tokens provide bodies for early skirmishes or fodder for sacrifice synergies that the set favors.
Its tap ability grants a small but repeatable boost of +1/+0 to a creature you control with activation limited to sorcery speed, which creates meaningful combat choices on your main phase. In addition the card offers card advantage when it attacks and reaches a power threshold, rewarding buffs and equipment. The extended art foil treatment makes it a standout at the table while the mechanics keep it useful in token archetypes, go-wide strategies, and commander lists that want reliable white midrange pressure.
