Throne on the Move
Roaming Throne is a compact engine piece from The Lost Caverns of Ixalan that rewards tribal builds and careful timing. The card name is straightforward and the design is too. With Ward 2 it resists cheap targeted answers as it enters the battlefield, and its enters the battlefield clause asks you to lock in a creature type that then applies to the Throne as well as to your other creatures of that type.
Play Roaming Throne in decks that already want token generators or value from entering the battlefield triggers. The Throne turns single triggers into double triggers for creatures you control that share the chosen type which can accelerate card advantage or combo sequences in a predictable way. This is a practical inclusion for commander players and limited pilots who can exploit repeatable enter the battlefield effects.
