Betor, Ancestor's Voice — Whisper of the Dragonfathers
Betor, Ancestor's Voice anchors lifegain and recursion into a single elegant commander. This borderless Mythic sports flying and lifelink and then converts your life swings into board presence at the end step by placing +1/+1 counters on another creature you control equal to life you gained this turn. It also watches over your fallen creatures, returning up to one creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield provided its mana value is less than or equal to life you lost this turn.
The card reads like a toolkit for attrition play. Use lifelink sources and incidental life gain to grow a threat or a utility creature while planning sacrificial or exchange plays to trigger the resurrection clause. Betor, Ancestor's Voice is practical in a midrange or aristocrats shell in Commander where incremental advantage and careful timing win long games. Add this Light Play borderless print to a collection for a commander that rewards resource accounting and deliberate sequencing.
