Sunlit Charge
Burning Sun Cavalry is a compact red threat that rewards a dinosaur heavy board. At a casting cost of {1}{R} the card reads as a 2/2 Human Knight that gains a timely boost when a Dinosaur shares the battlefield with it. Play it early to apply steady pressure or hold it back as a versatile blocker; the creature will become a more dangerous attacker or a more resilient defender whenever a Dinosaur is present.
In practical decks the card functions as an efficient two drop that scales with your board composition. Use it in aggressive builds to outtrade blockers or in midrange shells where dinos provide consistent triggers. The card name and printed flavor tie it to the Lost Caverns of Ixalan setting where riders and beasts fight shoulder to shoulder, which makes it thematically useful in tribal or synergy focused lists.
