Sarkhan, Dragon Ascendant — Rise the Skies
Sarkhan, Dragon Ascendant plays like a compact engine for Dragon decks. On resolution the card lets you behold a Dragon and, when you do, creates a Treasure token that smooths mana for a follow up cast. The printed enter the battlefield line gives immediate value and the recurring trigger that puts a +1/+1 counter on Sarkhan whenever a Dragon you control enters rewards building around creature-based Dragon deployment.
The card also flips role midcombat by turning Sarkhan into a Dragon and granting flying until end of turn whenever a Dragon enters, which makes it both a mana accelerator and a combat finisher. This Near Mint Halo Foil from Tarkir Dragonstorm is a strong inclusion for any Commander or Standard adjacent list that leans on incremental counters and evasive attacks. Add it to a deck that wants token ramp and repeatable threats and watch small plays snowball into lethal turns. Buy now to secure a foil mythic that blends utility with battlefield presence.
