Rhox Faithmender — Steady Lifegain Anchor
Rhox Faithmender is a practical inclusion for white lifegain decks; the card name signals its role and the art shows a robe clad rhino monk clutching a staff beside a tranquil fountain, giving the creature a grounded, supportive presence. As a 1 5 body for {3}{W} it trades damage resistance for an ability that converts every life gain into double value, making small pulses of life into meaningful swings and stabilizing against aggressive starts.
Mechanically Rhox Faithmender pairs cleanly with single point life triggers, tax effects, and any card that gains you incremental life each turn. It is straightforward to pilot yet scales in impact, turning incidental life gain into a macro advantage across the midgame. If you run lifelink creatures or recurring life sources in your Foundations Jumpstart builds, this rare is a reliable anchor. Add it to your deck and let it shore up your tempo and your life total.
