Squad Captain — Lead from the Front
Squad Captain is a compact white creature that rewards board development with immediate impact. As a 2 2 Human Soldier with vigilance, it can both soak damage and remain available to block. When it enters the battlefield it gains a number of +1/+1 counters equal to the other creatures you control, turning an early board presence into a threatening clock or a sturdy defensive anchor.
In practical play the card doubles as a pump engine and a tempo stabilizer. It scales cleanly in token strategies and goes well with anthem effects or cards that create tokens before the Captain hits. The art and flavor match the Foundations Jumpstart tone where disciplined formation and incremental advantage win games. Add this near mint English copy to decks that value synergy and reliable incremental growth.
