Aurelia's Vindicator
Aurelia's Vindicator arrives from Murders at Karlov Manor as a mythic foil Angel that reads like a compact midrange threat. For {2}{W}{W} you get a 4/2 flyer with lifelink and ward 2, which buys it time against targeted removal and stabilizes life totals. The card brings a modular disguise package that rewards careful timing. Cast it face down as a creature with a variable disguise cost then flip it for a disruptive exile effect that can purge the board and clean out graveyards.
In play the Vindicator functions as a soft control piece and a value engine. Turn it face up when you need to remove multiple creatures or disrupt a graveyard strategy, then rely on lifelink and flying to press advantage. Its exile trigger and the return clause when it leaves the battlefield create interesting sequencing decisions for both attacker and defender, making it a precise tool in limited and constructed decks that favor white exile effects and tempo plays.
