Ride the Tide with Kiora
Kiora, the Rising Tide arrives as a tight, utility focused planeswalker alternative that reshapes your hand and your graveyard at once. When Kiora enters, draw two cards, then discard two cards, which gives you immediate card selection and a reliable setup for graveyard strategies. Her body is a 3/2 that can attack early, and she rewards an aggressive plan by turning a stocked graveyard into board presence through her threshold ability.
Threshold triggers make Kiora a long game engine. Whenever Kiora attacks, if there are seven or more cards in your graveyard, you may create Scion of the Deep, a legendary 8/8 blue Octopus creature token. That interaction lets you sculpt your deck around self mill, sacrifice, or delve effects to hit seven cards consistently and convert attacks into a massive blocker or finisher. Light Play condition is reflected in the card surface and corners, and this copy from Foundations is a solid pick for players who want a playable staple with collectible value. Consider pairing Kiora with reliable graveyard fillers and bounce or untap effects to maximize token turns.
