Might of the Ancestors (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Light Play

Ancestors Lend Their Strength

Might of the Ancestors is a compact enchantment that earns its slot in white decks where tempo and combat presence matter. The card lets you start your attack with a clear advantage because at the beginning of combat on your turn a target creature you control receives a +2/+0 boost and vigilance until end of turn. That extra power shifts trade math in your favor and vigilance keeps attackers available to block on your opponent's turn which preserves board posture.

From a Lost Caverns of Ixalan perspective the effect reads as a disciplined ancestral blessing rather than raw aggression. Use it on a key attacker to push through damage or to make favorable blocks without losing board tempo. Experienced players will note the timing window at the beginning of combat and plan around removal and pump stacking to maximize value.
