Inti, Seneschal of the Sun (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Light Play

Sunlit Vanguard

Inti, Seneschal of the Sun is a compact threat that rewards aggressive sequencing and deliberate discards. As a {1}{R} Legendary Creature Human Knight with 2/2, Inti turns the act of attacking into card advantage and board development; you may discard when you attack to place a +1/+1 counter on an attacking creature and grant it trample until end of turn. That interaction keeps pressure on opponents while converting excess cards into incremental power on the battlefield.

Beyond its attack trigger, Inti provides a steady stream of potential resources. Whenever you discard one or more cards you exile the top card of your library and gain a short window to play it until your next end step. Decks that lean into looting effects or forced discards can exploit that timing to find answers and threats. Inti fits well in midrange aggro builds that want to convert commodity cards into tempo and to keep attackers relevant across turns.
