Arna Kennerud, Skycaptain Aerial Tactics
Arna Kennerud, Skycaptain stands as a poised beacon on the battlefield, a 4/4 Human Knight who commands the skies with flying and lifelink. The foil treatment on this Modern Horizons 3 card catches the light as it arcs through combat, pairing well with a creature-wide strategy that leans into evasion and lifegain. Her ward ability adds a measure of protection, giving you a defensive read on tempo so you can prioritize which attacks to push and which blocks to set. In play you’ll notice how she threads air superiority with steady resilience, making every swing feel measured rather than reckless.
Beyond the baseline package, Arna’s presence interacts with modified creatures in a way that rewards careful build design. When a modified creature you control attacks, the board state can begin to tilt toward doubling counters and duplicating permanents tied to that attacker, creating diverse lines of play and board-equality fights that end games on incremental gains. In foil light play condition, this card balances practical value with a touch of collectible polish, a solid centerpiece for a midrange or tempo MTG deck built around flight and fortitude.
