Icewind Elemental — Wings of Frost
The Icewind Elemental from Foundations is a compact blue flyer that trades tempo for card advantage. Icewind Elemental enters the battlefield as a 3 4 with flying and forces a one for one selection when it arrives. That enter the battlefield trigger is literal card selection pressure; it can sculpt your hand while giving you a flying body to apply pressure or block in the air.
As an experienced player you will notice where it fits. In control shells it gives a midrange reach and incremental advantage. In tempo builds it clears awkward draws and keeps momentum aloft. The printed rules text and the 3 4 body matter in combat math and card selection, so consider sequencing around removal and bounce effects. Pick this Light Play copy for play or collection and slot it where flyers and card filtering matter most.
