Dragonclaw Strike — Double and Duel
Dragonclaw Strike is a compact, tactical sorcery that turns a single creature into a combat engine. Cast it when you have a dependable attacker or a creature with an enter the battlefield trigger and you get two effects in sequence. First you double that creature's power and toughness until end of turn. Then that boosted creature fights up to one target creature an opponent controls so the enlarged stats matter immediately in removal trades and surprise blocks.
This Near Mint Foil from Tarkir Dragonstorm pairs clean, readable art with a play pattern familiar to curve-aware pilots. Use it to push through lethal, protect a key threat by winning a trade, or to amplify a creature with a damage based ability. The flavor ties to the set are clear; Dragonclaw Strike reads like a battlefield command from a clan that trusts ferocity and timing. Add it to a deck that values combat tricks and tempo swings and you will find consistent, practical uses in both constructed and limited play.
