Sunlit Charge
Burning Sun Cavalry is a compact red one drop that earns its keep in aggro decks and tribal builds. The card reads as a 2 2 Human Knight for {1}{R} and brings a simple conditional boost when a Dinosaur stands beside it. In practice the Cavalry trades early pressure for reliable tempo and turns into a slightly larger threat the moment your board hosts a Dinosaur creature.
Play it on curve to contest early ground or keep it back as a blocker that can grow when your Dinosaur arrives. The wording makes interactions straightforward during combat because the bonus applies both attacking and blocking until end of turn. For players tuning Lost Caverns of Ixalan lists this is the kind of efficient common that slots into aggressive red shells or supports a Dinosaur centered theme without adding unnecessary complexity.
