Skywarden of the Revolt
Resistance Skywarden is a sturdy red beater that rewards aggressive boards and strategic blocks. At five power and five toughness for a total cost of {3}{R}{R}, this Ogre Rebel provides immediate presence and late game staying power. Menace forces your opponent to commit multiple blockers or accept damage, while Reach gives an uncommon layer of defense against flyers you might otherwise struggle with in mono red matchups.
Use Resistance Skywarden as a frontline threat that compels unfavorable trades and protects your air attackers from opposing flyers. In limited play it closes races quickly; in constructed shells it can soak removal and trade up through combat due to its size. The flavor line nods to the Vulshok and the card slots cleanly into aggressive or midrange red lists where pressure and resilience win the day. Add it to your Foundations Jumpstart pool to shore up both offense and defense.
