Skyward Scout
Starry-Eyed Skyrider is a compact utility flier that slots cleanly into aggressive and token strategies. The near mint foil from Tarkir Dragonstorm presents the card with crisp art and a reflective sheen that catches light during play. As a Human Scout with flying and a triggered ability that grants another target creature you control flying when it attacks, the Skyrider is a tactical piece: it turns ground units into evasive threats and upgrades attacking token armies without costing extra mana.
In practice the Starry-Eyed Skyrider reads as a one mana tax for widespread air superiority. Its 1 3 body trades effectively with many early blockers and the added line that attacking tokens you control have flying pairs naturally with anthem effects and token generators. For players building white aggro, go wide builds or ones that rely on combat tricks, this card offers reliable evasion and tempo. Add the foil near mint condition to a collection for play or display and the card becomes both a functional slot in your deck and a pleasant piece of Tarkir era lore.
