Runescale Stormbrood — Storm-Tempered Dragon
Runescale Stormbrood is a practical pick for decks that want a midrange threat with a built in answer to small spells. The showcase frame and near mint condition make this Tarkir Dragonstorm printing attractive for collectors and players. On the battlefield it presents as a 2/4 flyer for {3}{R} that presses combat advantage while its left panel offers Chilling Screech as a reactive instant option you can cast when pressure is needed.
The card rewards spell-forward play. Flying gives immediate attack or block utility and the triggered line that reads Whenever you cast a noncreature spell or a Dragon spell this creature gets +2/+0 until end of turn turns cantrips and removal into tempo. The printed Chilling Screech ability costs {1}{U} and lets you counter a small threat which pairs well with the card’s role as both combat piece and tempo anchor. Artwork shows a snarling dragon with teal horn highlights framed by ornate red borders which suits Tarkir’s dragonstorm themes. Add it to aggressive midrange, Jeskai style shells, or any Dragon tribal list that wants a cheap counter option built into the card package.
