Aurelia's Vindicator — Vigilant Skywarden
Aurelia's Vindicator arrives as a compact, efficient answer piece for white midrange builds. It flies and gains life on damage dealt which keeps you steady while it patrols the top of the battlefield. It also protects itself with ward 2 so opponents pay for removal that targets it. The card reads like a clean tool for tempo and stabilization in games that prize both board control and incremental advantage.
Its disguise mechanic lets you invest mana to turn it face up later and exile a selection of opposing creatures from the battlefield or creature cards from graveyards. That exile effect is temporary but operationally powerful because the exile window persists while the Vindicator remains. Use it to remove a troublesome attacker, to deny graveyard recursion, or to buy time while you press the board. This is a practical creature for players who prefer discreet timing and steady value over flashy plays.
