Skybound Scout
Skyknight Squire from Foundations is a compact engine piece that rewards token and creature strategies. For one and white you get a 1 1 Cat Scout that grows each time another creature enters under your control, which makes it a reliable early play and a steady late game threat. The extended art showcases a weathered squire and an armored heron in a field, a visual that reads well at the table and in playtesting notes where incremental value matters.
Mechanically Skyknight Squire excels in schemes that generate creatures or populate the board. Each arrival puts a plus one plus one counter on the squire and once it reaches three counters it gains flying and becomes a Knight in addition to its other types, turning a humble checklist into evasive pressure. Use it as an early grower, a midgame presenter of evasive damage, or as fodder for counter synergies. Add this Near Mint English Rare to a Foundations collection and slot it into token, anthem, or +1 plus +1 counter shells to get immediate utility and thematic fit.
