Garland, Knight of Cornelia: Harness Chaos and Control the Battlefield
Garland, Knight of Cornelia / Chaos, the Endless brings a compelling blend of strategy and resilience to your Magic deck. As a Legendary Creature, Garland’s ability to surveil upon casting any noncreature spell adds a layer of card selection that experienced players will appreciate. This mechanic lets you look at the top card of your library and decide if it should remain or be sent to the graveyard, optimizing your draws and graveyard synergy in a single stroke.
The true strength of Garland lies in his transformative power. For a significant mana investment, you can return him from the graveyard to the battlefield transformed, embodying Chaos, the Endless. This ability is restricted to sorcery speed, demanding thoughtful timing but rewarding patience with a potent board presence. His 5/5 power and toughness ensure he makes a lasting impact once transformed, while his 3/2 form applies early pressure with efficient stats and synergy.
