Sarkhan, Dragon Ascendant — Warden of Ember
Sarkhan, Dragon Ascendant is a compact, utility legend that rewards a Dragon heavy game plan and careful sequencing. When Sarkhan enters the battlefield you may behold a Dragon and gain a Treasure token which smooths mana for a second activation or a follow up spell. His static synergy turns each Dragon arrival into incremental growth while granting flying for an evasive strike that can close out a game.
The card sits well in aggressive midrange and creature based Dragon shells where incremental value matters. Sarkhan, Dragon Ascendant is printed in English in the Tarkir Dragonstorm set as a Rare foil in Near Mint condition. Keep him on board with token generation and tempo plays and he will steadily scale into a threat that doubles as a removal bait and a finisher. Add him to your Dragon list and tune your curve so each creature that enters can push Sarkhan closer to lethal.
