Guardian of the Plains
Castle Ardenvale from Commander Tarkir Dragonstorm is a pragmatic addition to white decks that want steady token production without flashy requirements. Castle Ardenvale enters tapped unless you control a Plains, taps for white mana, and can be invested in to produce a 1 1 Human token. Use it to stabilize early turns, accelerate a board plan, or seed value for anthem effects and sacrifice synergies.
As a card that rewards board building, Castle Ardenvale fits naturally alongside plainswalkers and creature commanders. The light play condition makes this copy an affordable option for tabletop play while retaining collectible appeal. Add it to a token oriented build to convert spare mana into bodies that matter, and keep the castle working as a repeatable engine for incremental advantage.
