Axgard Cavalry — Ready to Rally
Axgard Cavalry from Foundations is a compact utility creature that keeps your tempo intact. This Light Play Foil of the common Dwarf Berserker trades size for versatility. For a cost of {1}{R} you get a 2/2 body and an activated tap ability that grants target creature haste until end of turn. That simple clause opens swing windows, surprise blocks and explosive turns where one extra attack closes the game.
In lore the Axgard riders are practical and blunt about bravery which shows in the card text and flavor line. The foil surface adds subtle catch to your sleeve while remaining tournament friendly at casual and competitive events. Use this card to enable combo lines, push through damage with a lethal trick or to bait removal before committing your key threats. Add it to burn shells and aggressive red decks where an extra point of tempo matters.
