Heavenward Strike: Firemane Avenger
Firemane Avenger is a disciplined midrange flyer that asks for company to turn its presence into value. On its own it is a 3/3 with flying for {2}{R}{W}, which makes it a reliable aerial body that pressures opponents and stabilizes damage races. When you commit multiple attackers, the Avenger converts tempo into reach and sustain.
Its Battalion trigger rewards aggressive sequencing and token or swarm strategies by dealing direct damage and offsetting life loss. Use it where attack math matters and where incidental damage can double as removal. The card fits well into Boros builds that want an attacker which chips away and helps keep you out of range while staying resilient enough to survive blocks that trade poorly for the opponent.
