Dungeon's Watchful Sentinel
Cloister Gargoyle emerges as a stalwart guardian from the shadows of the dungeon, embodying the quintessential synergy between artifact resilience and dungeon exploration in Adventures in the Forgotten Realms. With a modest mana investment of {2}{W}, this artifact creature begins its journey as a 0/4 sentinel, offering a sturdy defensive presence. The moment it takes the battlefield, it ventures into the dungeon—either entering the first room or advancing to the next—making it an ideal companion for decks focused on dungeon crawling mechanics.
What sets Cloister Gargoyle apart is its evolving prowess: once you've completed a dungeon, it gains a significant +3/+0 boost and flying, transforming it into an airborne threat to your opponents’ defenses. This dynamic growth complements other dungeon-centric cards like Dungeon Crawler or Rescue from the Underworld, enhancing board control and board presence. Its foil Light Play finish not only highlights the sculpted details of this vigilant gargoyle but also makes it a prized pick for collectors and players who appreciate both form and function.
