Bedrock Bulwark
Bedrock Tortoise is a compact defensive piece for green boards that pays for reliability rather than speed. At {3}{G} the card gives you a 0/6 body that changes the way your blockers work and protects your key creatures while it is your turn. The first ability grants hexproof to your creatures on your turn so attackers are harder to remove before combat. The second ability flips damage assignment for creatures whose toughness exceeds their power making big shells into genuine threat pitchers rather than mere walls.
In Lost Caverns of Ixalan play you will often slot Bedrock Tortoise where you need to stabilize and then push through with oversized creatures. It pairs well with pump effects that increase toughness or with cards that force favorable blocks. The artwork and flavor fit the set with a temple borne shell carrying both history and resilience. Experienced players will appreciate the subtle shift in combat math this card enforces and the way it changes blockers into reliable damage conduits.
