Skyward Sentinel
Malcator's Watcher is a concise blue one drop that pulls duty as both an aerial blocker and card advantage seed. The card name signals its role: a 1 1 Artifact Creature Phyrexian Drone with Flying and Vigilance that leaves behind value when it dies. In limited builds this Watcher trades favorably into small ground creatures and still attacks without losing vigilance, which keeps tempo intact while preserving your defenses.
From the Foundations Jumpstart pool this common fits into artifact synergies and blink strategies, and its death trigger is a steady way to refill your hand when you need to keep pressure. The art shows fleets of mechanical scouts scanning the sky, which helps explain why the Watcher is more about steady surveillance than one time impact. Add Malcator's Watcher to any blue or artifact light deck to shore up early turns and smooth out your draws.
