Skyborne Spear of the Mardu
Dragonback Lancer is a practical addition for players who want efficient aerial pressure in a Commander or limited deck. The card plays as a 3 3 flyer for {3}{W} and brings a steady stream of attack triggers thanks to Mobilize 1. On attack you generate a tapped, attacking 1 1 red Warrior token which trades tempo for reach and forces blockers to make hard choices.
The design fits Tarkir's martial tone with a clear battlefield role. Dragonback Lancer pairs well with anthem effects and sacrifice synergies and its token creation provides reliable chump blockers or extra damage on combat turns. If you play white aggressive strategies or build around token value this card contributes consistent combat presence while staying simple to sequence. Add it to the sideboard for tempo matchups or slot it into a Mardu aggro shell for dependable flying pressure.
