Guardian of the Great Door (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Near Mint

Guardian at the Gate

Guardian of the Great Door is a disciplined white flyer that asks you to commit board resources for board control. As an Angel with flying and a 4 4 body, it reads cleanly in combat and trades favorably against ground creatures. The additional cost to tap four untapped artifacts creatures and lands you control shapes the timing window for this card so you can plan deployments around when you can spare permanent resources.

In practical play the Guardian functions as a midrange stabilizer that rewards careful sequencing. It can close an air gap while forcing opponents to answer a large threat backed by permanents. The flavor ties into Lost Caverns of Ixalan lore where angels stand watch over sealed cores making this card a thematic fit in decks that value board presence and tempo control.
