March of the Loxodon
Loxodon Battle Priest is a practical addition for players who prize incremental growth and board resilience. The card rewards timing and positioning. Cast for {4}{W} and sitting as a 3/5, it arrives ready to soak damage and begin bolstering your other creatures at the start of your combat phase.
At the beginning of combat on your turn, Loxodon Battle Priest places a +1/+1 counter on another target creature you control. That interaction makes it a reliable engine in tokens decks and in builds that want steady creature upgrades rather than a single explosive swing. The creature type Elephant Cleric fits Tarkir lore where duty and discipline shape battlefield support, and the body plus the recurring buff lets it act as both defender and enabler. Consider it when you need predictable midgame value and synergies with counter matters effects.
