Chandra Ignites the Stack
Chandra, Flameshaper brings a reliable burst of red card advantage and finishing power to midrange and control mirrors. Chandra, Flameshaper rewards forward planning by converting three library cards into an immediate option and by creating a fast token copy of a threat you already control. The card reads cleanly and does what it promises; use the +2 to dig and accelerate, the +1 to double a creature for a surprise attack, and the -4 to clear opposing boards or finish off a damaged planeswalker.
As a legendary Planeswalker with six starting loyalty this Chandra fits into a tempo plan or a value build. The printed abilities let you sculpt turns while keeping pressure on the opponent. Practical players will find lines that combine the token copy with a targeted burn finish and the exiled selection can be fuel for a late game pivot. This Near Mint borderless Foundations printing is a Mythic that belongs in any red deck that wants flexible removal and repeatable threat density.
